Kevin Lubick be5091c1fb [PathKit] Remove experimental- from package names
On the demo page, we use the skia-cdn bucket to hopefully
have better performance than unpkg.

Additionally, on the demo page, we default to using the
WASM version if supported by the browser.

An asm.js version of Skia's PathOps toolkit.
To use the library, run `npm install pathkit-asmjs` and then simply include it:
<script src="/node_modules/pathkit-asmjs/bin/pathkit.js"></script>
PathKitInit({
locateFile: (file) => '/node_modules/pathkit-asmjs/bin/'+file,
}).then((PathKit) => {
// Code goes here using PathKit
});
PathKit comes in two parts, a JS loader and the actual WASM code. The JS loader creates
a global `PathKitInit` that can be called to load the WASM code. The `locateFile` function
is used to tell the JS loader where to find the .js.mem file. By default, it will
look for /pathkit.js.mem, so if this is not the case, use `locateFile` to configure
this properly.
The `PathKit` object returned through the .then() callback is fully loaded and ready to use.
See the [API page](https://skia.org/user/modules/pathkit) and
[example.html](https://github.com/google/skia/blob/master/modules/pathkit/npm-asmjs/example.html)
for details on how to use the library.
Using PathKit and WebPack
-------------------------
WebPack's support for asm.js should be straight-forward, since it's just another JS library. PathKit can be
used with just a few configuration changes.
In the JS code, use require():
const PathKitInit = require('pathkit-asmjs/bin/pathkit.js')
PathKitInit().then((PathKit) => {
// Code goes here using PathKit
})
Since WebPack does not expose the entire `/node_modules/` directory, but instead
packages only the needed pieces, we have to copy pathkit.mem into the build directory.
One such solution is to use [CopyWebpackPlugin](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/copy-webpack-plugin).
For example, add the following plugin:
config.plugins.push(
new CopyWebpackPlugin([
{ from: 'node_modules/pathkit-asmjs/bin/pathkit.js.mem' }
])
);
If webpack gives an error similar to:
ERROR in ./node_modules/pathkit-asmjs/bin/pathkit.js
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'fs' in '...'
Then, add the following configuration change to the node section of the config:
config.node = {
fs: 'empty'
};
