* refactor: bundle the browser and renderer process electron code
* Bundles browser/init and renderer/init
* Improves load performance of main process by ~40%
* Improves load performance of renderer process by ~30%
* Prevents users from importing our "requiring" our internal logic such
as ipc-main-internal. This makes those message buses safer as they are
less accessible, there is still some more work to be done though to lock
down those buses completely.
* The electron.asar file now only contains 2 files, as a future
improvement maybe we can use atom_natives to ship these two files
embedded in the binary
* This also removes our dependency on browserify which had some strange
edge cases that caused us to have to hack around require-order and
stopped us using certain ES6/7 features we should have been able to use
(async / await in some files in the sandboxed renderer init script)
TLDR: Things are faster and better :)
* fix: I really do not want to talk about it
* chore: add performance improvements from debugging
* fix: resolve the provided path so webpack thinks it is absolute
* chore: fixup per PR review
* fix: use webpacks ProvidePlugin to keep global, process and Buffer alive after deletion from global scope for use in internal code
* fix: bundle worker/init as well to make node-in-workers work
* chore: update wording as per feedback
* chore: make the timers hack work when yarn is not used

* fix: Update node Debug Options parser usage
* fix: Fix asar setup

_breakFirstLine was being set on the process, but that has changed in node 12 and so is no longer needed. Node will handle it properly when --inspect-brk is provided

* fix: make original-fs work with streams
* build: override node module version
* fix: use _linkedBinding in content_script/init.js
* chore: update node ref in DEPS
* build: node_module_version should be 73
* Comparison using is when operands support __eq__
Comparison using 'is' when equivalence is not the same as identity
When you compare two values using the is or is not operator, it is the object identities of the two values that is tested rather than their equality. If the class of either of the values in the comparison redefines equality then the is operator may return False even though the objects compare as equal. Equality is defined by the __eq__ or, in Python2, __cmp__ method. To compare two objects for equality, use the == or != operator instead.
Recommendation
When you want to compare the value of two literals, use the comparison operator == or != in place of is or is not.
If the uniqueness property or performance are important then use an object that does not redefine equality.

* refactor: remove js2asar.py and port logic to JS in more readable / GN-style way
* refactor: further clean up ASAR impl, add new node_action GN template
* build: fix native_mksnapshot build
When we changed our electron_mksnapshot_zip target to include the v8_context_snapshot_generator, this dependency made the `run_mksnapshot` target run which was trying to run an arm/arm64 binary on x64 hardware.
Don't use custom build args for native_mksnapshot as they are not needed

* Strip chromedriver binaries
Also, fix path for files to skip

Mksnapshot needs special handling for arm/arm64 because there is both an x86 and arm/arm64 binary in those cases.
* chore: stop using electron.gyp for version info

Run verify-ffmpeg on Mac builds
Add ffmpeg build to VSTS
* build: remove common/icu/no_inline_default_constructor.patch
It was added in https://github.com/electron/libchromiumcontent/pull/207,
the issue is no longer valid in the GN build.
* build: remove common/icu/build_gn.patch
In GN release build all code including node are linked
statically in a single binary, the workaround is no longer valid.
* build: remove ununsed patches
* build: remove is_electron_gn_build arg
* build: remove component mode crt config patch
* build: remove executable config patch for character_data_generator
* build: remove latency_info.patch
* build: remove exec_script_whitelist patch
* build: update patches/common/v8/build_gn.patch
* build: remove common/chromium/fix-arm64-linking-error.patch
It was added in a1df18ca36
to workaround a linker issue.
* build: remove common/chromium/protobuf_build_gn.patch
It was added to workaround a VS linker bug, it has been fixed
in Update 1
* build: remove common/chromium/disable-recursive-surface-sync.patch
It was added in 6bc6626e2c
to fix dcheck on macOS, it no longer appears to be an issue.
In the GN build, libchromiumcontent is no longer a distinct library, but
merely a container for a set of scripts and patches. Maintaining those
patches in a separate repository is tedious and error-prone, so merge
them into the main repo.
Once this is merged and GN is the default way to build Electron, the
libchromiumcontent repository can be archived.
* build: [gn] explicitly override rtc_use_h264
* build: [gn] don't override ffmpeg config from release config
* build: [gn] remove is_cfi override from release config
The original concern about node is fixed and we have been
building testing builds without the override for sometime now.
* build: [gn] add distributable zip target
* build: update the CircleCI config
- enable debug and testing builds on Mac
- run Mac release builds nightly
- run test for Mac release builds
- use shared build machines configs
* Add resources dir to zip on non mac platforms.
* build: add config to build Electron for tests
* build: run nightly linux builds for the 3-0-x branch
* build: gn: update CI config for linux builds
- run GN debug and testing builds for PRs (as FYI)
- do not run tests for GN debug builds
- run GN release builds nightly
* build: gn: run testing builds on CI instead of release on Windows
Should save some time since release builds set 'official_build=true'
which make the builds take much more time.
* build: gn: use testing config to run CI jobs on Mac
Tests should run faster for testing builds.
Devs can still locally override or add settings by adding lines after
the `import` statement in args.gn.
This will help make sure that everyone has a common set of build args,
and will allow us to update everyone's build args in git.
The default_app asar was recently changed to reference files inside
`node_modules/` in addition to files inside `default_app/`. The
`js2asar.py` script was updated to interpret what this meant, but the GN
build wasn't. This change somewhat hackily makes the GN build reuse the
`js2asar.py` script so that this and also hopefully any future changes
will work in the GN build as well as the GYP build.
We're abusing the nodejs build a little bit by building it without ICU support, but forcing the inspector to be built, which depends on ICU. This synchronizes one of the build flags that's required to get ICU to link on Windows.
This is required on Windows, because in Debug mode, C++ stdlib containers have a different size to when in Release mode, so the code in `node.dll` thought that `node::Environment` was a different size to the code in `electron.exe`, which uh, caused problems.
It should also make debugging through node a bit easier on all platforms.
For some reason the windows node build needs `.dll` on the ends of these libraries, and also needs to be linked against `dbghelp`.
Additionally, copy the `WHOLEARCHIVE` hacks from common.gypi, which was doing the same thing.
