Daniel Dromboski 8807f0ad48 [tools] More Python 3 compatibility fixes
These should all be forward/backward compatible with Python 2/Python 3.

[tools] Tweak statusfile.py for Python 3

.iteritems() does not exist in Python 3, only .items().

(While .iteritems() was meant to be an optimization over .items()
in Python 2, .items() should work fine, and it is forward/backward
compatible.)


[tools] Fix another Python 3 issue in mb.py

sys.platform used to return e.g. 'linux2', which is 'linux' plus
whatever the first digit of `uname -r` was when Python was built.
As of Python 3.3, it always returns just 'linux' for Linux OSes.
Use `sys.platform.startswith('linux')` for forward/backward
compatibility.


[tools] Make base_runner.py Python 3 compatible

dict.keys() returns a dict_keys in Python 3, whereas it
used to return a simple array. list() is forward/backward
compatible with identical results on Python 2/3 (returns array).

(Tested on Linux x64, trying to recreate NodeJS's CI workflow.)


[tools] Make tools/dev/v8gen.py work with Python 3

dict.keys() returns a dict_keys in Python 3, whereas it
used to return a simple array. list() is forward/backward
compatible with identical results on Python 2/3 (returns array).

Comparing a None-type value numerically used to result in the
None-type value always being considered "less than" the thing
it is compared to. As of Python 3, numerically comparing against
None or None-typed values results in an error. Check if a value
is truthy before numerically comparing it, for forward/backward
compatibility.

print() used to transparently decode byte strings in Python 2.
In Python 3, they must be explicitly decoded first.

(Tested on Linux 64-bit, trying to recreate NodeJS's CI workflow.)

MB - The Meta-Build wrapper

MB is a simple wrapper intended to provide a uniform interface to either GYP or GN, such that users and bots can call one script and not need to worry about whether a given bot is meant to use GN or GYP.

It supports two main functions:

  1. "gen" - the main gyp_chromium / gn gen invocation that generates the Ninja files needed for the build.

  2. "analyze" - the step that takes a list of modified files and a list of desired targets and reports which targets will need to be rebuilt.

We also use MB as a forcing function to collect all of the different build configurations that we actually support for Chromium builds into one place, in //tools/mb/mb_config.pyl.
