Cleanup duplicate files; Combine README and build docs.

This PR cleans up some of the documentation post Dawn+Tint merge.
The README is better combined, the building document is moved up
a level as it covers both Tint and Dawn. The various duplicate files
are removed.

# Building Dawn
## System requirements
* Git
* CMake (3.10.2 or later) (if desired)
* GN (if desired)
* Ninja (or other build tool)
* Python, for fetching dependencies
* [depot_tools] in your path
- Linux
- The `pkg-config` command:
```sh
# Install pkg-config on Ubuntu
sudo apt-get install pkg-config
```
- Mac
- [Xcode](https://developer.apple.com/xcode/) 12.2+.
- The macOS 11.0 SDK. Run `xcode-select` to check whether you have it.
```sh
ls `xcode-select -p`/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs
```
## Install `depot_tools`
Dawn uses the Chromium build system and dependency management so you need to [install depot_tools] and add it to the PATH.
[install depot_tools]: http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/chrome-infra-docs/flat/depot_tools/docs/html/depot_tools_tutorial.html#_setting_up
## Get the code
```sh
# Clone the repo as "dawn"
git clone https://dawn.googlesource.com/dawn dawn && cd dawn
# Bootstrap the gclient configuration
cp scripts/standalone.gclient .gclient
# Fetch external dependencies and toolchains with gclient
gclient sync
```
## Build Dawn
### Compiling using CMake + Ninja
```sh
mkdir -p out/Debug
cd out/Debug
cmake -GNinja ../..
ninja # or autoninja
```
### Compiling using CMake + make
```sh
mkdir -p out/Debug
cd out/Debug
cmake ../..
make # -j N for N-way parallel build
```
### Compiling using gn + ninja
```sh
mkdir -p out/Debug
gn gen out/Debug
autoninja -C out/Debug
```
The most common GN build option is `is_debug=true/false`; otherwise
`gn args out/Debug --list` shows all the possible options.
On macOS you'll want to add the `use_system_xcode=true` in most cases.
(and if you're a googler please get XCode from go/xcode).
### Fuzzers on MacOS
If you are attempting fuzz, using `TINT_BUILD_FUZZERS=ON`, the version of llvm
in the XCode SDK does not have the needed libfuzzer functionality included.
The build error that you will see from using the XCode SDK will look something
like this:
```
ld: file not found:/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/clang/11.0.0/lib/darwin/libclang_rt.fuzzer_osx.a
```
The solution to this problem is to use a full version llvm, like what you would
get via homebrew, `brew install llvm`, and use something like `CC=<path to full
clang> cmake ..` to setup a build using that toolchain.

```
## Build Dawn
Then generate build files using `gn args out/Debug` or `gn args out/Release`.
A text editor will appear asking build options, the most common option is `is_debug=true/false`; otherwise `gn args out/Release --list` shows all the possible options.
On macOS you'll want to add the `use_system_xcode=true` in most cases. (and if you're a googler please get XCode from go/xcode).
Then use `ninja -C out/Release` to build dawn and for example `./out/Release/dawn_end2end_tests` to run the tests.
