Restructure how the Android APK tests are compiled now
that we have a Chromium checkout available (since r6938).
This removes the need of several hacks that were needed when
building these targets from inside a Chromium checkout.
By creating a symlink to Chromium's base we can compile the required
targets. This also removes the need of the previously precompiled
binaries we keep in /deps/tools/android at Google code.
All the user needs to do is to add the target_os = ["android"]
entry to his .gclient as described at
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/AndroidBuildInstructions
Before committing this CL, the Android APK buildbots will need
to be updated.
This also solves http://crbug.com/402594 since the apply_svn_patch.py
usage will be similar to the other standalone bots.

WebRTC standalone shares a lot of dependencies and build
tools with Chromium. To make the build work, many of the
paths of a Chromium checkout is now emulated by creating
symlinks to files and directories.
All DEPS entries that previously used Var("chromium_trunk")
to reference a Chromium checkout or From("chromium_deps"..)
to reference the Chromium DEPS file are now removed and
replaced by symlink entries in setup_links.py.
The script also handles cleanup of the legacy
Subversion-based dependencies that's needed for the
transition.
Windows: One Windows-specific important change is that
gclient sync|runhooks must now be run from a shell
with Administrator privileges in order to be able to create
symlinks. This also means that Windows XP is no longer
supported.
To transition a previously created checkout:
Run "python setup_links.py --force" to cleanup the old
SVN-based dependencies that have been synced by gclient sync.
For Buildbots, the --force flag is automatically enabled for
their syncs.
