Due to a code-generation defect related to virtual method thunks in the
official compiler used for Chromium M76, it's necessary to build for WoA
with a later version of Clang. When running gclient sync, setting
ELECTRON_BUILD_WOA=1 in the environment will download a corrected
compiler which doesn't have this defect.
