dpranke ad5630db87 Fix the toolchain used to build the snapshots in GN.
We need the v8 snapshot to be compiled on the host cpu (the
machine doing the build), but using generated code that has the
same pointer size as the target_arch; i.e., for 32-bit arm builds,
we need to use a 32-bit x86 host binary, not a 64-bit host binary.

The easiest way to ensure that this happens is to just specify
a custom toolchain in GN to use to build the snapshot.

V8 JavaScript Engine

V8 is Google's open source JavaScript engine.

V8 implements ECMAScript as specified in ECMA-262.

V8 is written in C++ and is used in Google Chrome, the open source browser from Google.

V8 can run standalone, or can be embedded into any C++ application.

V8 Project page: https://code.google.com/p/v8/

Getting the Code

Checkout depot tools, and run

fetch v8

This will checkout V8 into the directory v8 and fetch all of its dependencies. To stay up to date, run

git pull origin gclient sync

For fetching all branches, add the following into your remote configuration in .git/config:

    fetch = +refs/branch-heads/*:refs/remotes/branch-heads/*
    fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
