Gregory Szorc 90980a53e9 Bug 928195 - Part 6: Rewrite WebIDL build system integration
WebIDL build system integration has been rewritten from the ground up.
Changes:

* GlobalGen.py, BindingGen.py, and ExampleGen.py have been removed in
  favor of mozwebidl.py.

* Static .webidl files are now processed directly in their original location
  and aren't copied to the object directory.

* Generated events <stem>.cpp files are now compiled into the unified
  sources. Previously, only the <stem>Binding.cpp files were compiled
  into unified sources.

* Exported .h files are now generated directly into their final location.
  Previously, they were generated into the local directory then
  installed in their final location.

* The list of globalgen-generated files now lives in Python and isn't
  duplicated in 3 places.

* The make dependencies are much simpler as a result of using a single
  command to perform all code generation. The auto-generated .pp file from
  code generation sets up all dependencies necessary to reinvoke code
  generation and Python takes care of dependency management.

# To Trigger a clobber replace ALL of the textual description below,
# giving a bug number and a one line description of why a clobber is
# required. Modifying this file will make configure check that a
# clobber has been performed before the build can continue.
#
# MERGE NOTE: When merging two branches that require a CLOBBER, you should
# merge both CLOBBER descriptions, to ensure that users on
# both branches correctly see the clobber warning.

# O <-- Users coming from both parents need to Clobber

Bug 928195 rewrote WebIDL building from the ground up, hopefully eliminating
needs for future clobbers
