Mike Hommey 8ea7516844 Bug 1747347 - Use configure autobootstrap code to install toolchains in mach bootstrap. r=firefox-build-system-reviewers,andi
This uses the same trick as bug 1743832 under the hood. We could go the
other way around, extracting the configure code to a separate module,
but the longer term goal here is to have configure figure out which
things to bootstrap for the selected build type.

As a side effect, mach bootstrap will stop re-bootstrapping things that
are already up-to-date, at least for things using
install_toolchain_artifact, excluding those that don't follow the
convention wrt the extracted directory path.

mozboot - Bootstrap your system to build Mozilla projects
=========================================================

This package contains code used for bootstrapping a system to build
mozilla-central.

This code is not part of the build system per se. Instead, it is related
to everything up to invoking the actual build system.

If you have a copy of the source tree, you run:

    python bin/bootstrap.py

If you don't have a copy of the source tree, you can run:

    curl https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/raw-file/default/python/mozboot/bin/bootstrap.py -o bootstrap.py
    python bootstrap.py

The bootstrap script will download everything it needs from hg.mozilla.org
automatically!
