dan sinclair 4e6b52a21b Revert "Use upstream SPIRV-Cross GN files."
This reverts commit 9fdbb74072.

Reason for revert: The SPIRV-Cross GN files have a bug which is fixed upstream, but Skia is on an old version of SPIRV-Cross so they don't have the fix. So, the build fails when rolling Dawn into Skia complaining about unknown `-fno-exceptions` on the windows bots. Need Skia to either move to vulkan-deps, or roll their spirv-cross forward before this can re-land.

Original change's description:
> Use upstream SPIRV-Cross GN files.
>
> Previously spirv-cross didn't have its own sources files but this
> changed recently so we should use them. This will ultimately allow
> sharing targets between multiple components in Chromium.
>

Dawn, a WebGPU implementation

Dawn is an open-source and cross-platform implementation of the work-in-progress WebGPU standard. More precisely it implements webgpu.h that is a one-to-one mapping with the WebGPU IDL. Dawn is meant to be integrated as part of a larger system and is the underlying implementation of WebGPU in Chromium.

Dawn provides several WebGPU building blocks:

  • WebGPU C/C++ headers that applications and other building blocks use.
    • The webgpu.h version that Dawn implements.
    • A C++ wrapper for the webgpu.h.
  • A "native" implementation of WebGPU using platforms' GPU APIs:
    • D3D12 on Windows 10
    • Metal on macOS and iOS
    • Vulkan on Windows, Linux, ChromeOS, Android and Fuchsia
    • OpenGL as best effort where available
  • A client-server implementation of WebGPU for applications that are in a sandbox without access to native drivers
