When creating branded release builds and using scripts/strip-binaries.py
on Linux, the final artifacts end up unstripped due to the static set of
binaries considered for stripping.
With this patch the name of the electron binary is taken from the
BRANDING.json `project_name` key.

* fix: broken wayland window decorations due to botched chromium update
The `GetTitlebarBounds().height()` is obviously intended to be placed in
the `top` parameter, which used to be the second one before upstream
removed multi-parameter `gfx::Rect::Inset`, but it's the first parameter
for `gfx::Insets::TLBR`, which was intended to replace the removed
`Inset` function. However, whoever updated Chromium kept the parameter
unchanged, causing the title bar height to be passed to the `left`
parameter, causing the window title bar to be unclickable.
* fix: wayland window top bar buttons unclickable
Use NonClientFrameView::TargetForRect for the ClientFrameViewLinux
implementation because the default inherited from FramelessView blocks
any non-HTCLIENT events.
* fix: add maximized parameter to LinuxUI::GetWindowFrameProvider
* fix: pass frame_->IsMaximized() to GetWindowFrameProvider
This ensures that the toolkit renders the window decorations in maximized mode
while the window is maximized to ensure that there is no empty space around the window.

* fix: ensure native modules are built with config.gypi
This works by patching node.h to check that two defines are set using the equivilant of an XNOR operation. One define "ELECTRON_ENSURE_CONFIG_GYPI" is set via common.gypi which is _already_ used to build native modules and has been since the dawn of time. Therefore this define will be set for all native module compilations targetting the Electron runtime. The second define "USING_ELECTRON_CONFIG_GYPI" is only defined when the gypi argument "using_electron_config_gypi" is set to 1 which is only done so via config.gypi. Only new enough versions of node-gyp correctly use the config.gypi file thus resulting in a compilation error on version of node-gyp that are too old.

This define is only needed when linking against Chromiums libc++ which we currently
do not ship / expose the symbols of. We probably should make those symbols visible and
actually ensure that electron-rebuild et. al link against our libc++ instead of the system libc++
but for now this fixes compilation issues on macOS where the default system clang links to the system libc++
which does not (obviously) use the Chromium ABI namespace.
For our nan tests which do link against Chromiums libc++ we define the ABI namespace in the spec runner.
When widevine was disabled at the build level we never dealt with the callback passed into GetSupportedKeySystems. This was ok until requests became marked pending in https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/3430502 until the callback was called. This resulted in a promise never resolving / rejecting and certain media websites (E.g. spotify) hanging on load waiting for a signal that would never arrive.

Extending the `testing` GN profile with the arguments documented to
allow breakpoint debugging
(https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/development/debugging#breakpoint-debugging)
doesn't quite work on macOS:
```sh
is_debug = true
symbol_level = 2
forbid_non_component_debug_builds = false
```
The build eventually fails on both Intel and Apple Silicon with the
following (summarized) error:
```sh

This symbol is defined on a file that is not declared as a dependency of
`libchrome` on the GN definitions. Why the problem is not reproducible
on plain testing or release builds remains a mystery to me. I'm guessing
some non-debug path somewhere in the GN definitions does eventually
require that file.

fix: performance problem in crashReporter.start() on macOS
This change reduces the duration of crashReporter.start() on Intel macOS
from 622 milliseconds to 257 milliseconds!
Backports https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/crashpad/crashpad/+/3641386
posix: Replace DoubleForkAndExec() with ForkAndSpawn()
The DoubleForkAndExec() function was taking over 622 milliseconds to run
on macOS 11 (BigSur) on Intel i5-1038NG7. I did some debugging by adding
some custom traces and found that the fork() syscall is the bottleneck
here, i.e., the first fork() takes around 359 milliseconds and the
nested fork() takes around 263 milliseconds. Replacing the nested fork()
and exec() with posix_spawn() reduces the time consumption to 257
milliseconds!
See https://github.com/libuv/libuv/pull/3064 to know why fork() is so
slow on macOS and why posix_spawn() is a better replacement.
Another point to note is that even base::LaunchProcess() from Chromium
calls posix_spawnp() on macOS -

The isFocused() method on macOS works by checking if the selected
BrowserWindow is a key window. Unfortunately, this didn't work well
with blur() because it wasn't calling any macOS APIs that would change
the key status of the window. Hence, this changes the implementation of
blur() to call orderOut first, which removes the key
status of the window. Then when the orderBack function is called, it
moves the window to the back of its level in the screen list, without
changing the key window.

Rule 13 recommends using Node's URL parser for handling url inputs. At
the moment, this is not being followed in the code example for rule 5,
which falls back on checking that the url ends with a '/'. If this was
forgotten when a user copies this code it could introduce security
vulnerabilities if an attacker uses an URL in the following way:
"https://example.com.attacker.com"
Using Node's URL parser fixes this potential missuse and enables the
'/' to be omited from the code example.

* build: rebuild the dist_zips when the deps get modified
The dist.zip generated by the electron_dist_zip action was not getting
updated when changes were being made to the dependencies, like the
source files. It turns out, we were using data_deps for the dependencies
instead of deps. Here is the difference:
data_deps: things needed to ultimately run the thing built by a target
deps: things needed to build the target
So the difference in treatment of both sets of dependencies is actually
intentional.

WebRTC has changed how they integrate into Chromium, they don't
expose their dependencies externally anymore. Instead, one must
now go through webrtc_overrides:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+/cbc90fd093956
We're already including webrtc_overrides as a dependency which
includes the modules, so this extra deps isn't needed anymore.

**Note:** When distributing your packaged app, you have to also ship the

**Note:**On Windows, you have to call it after the `ready` events gets emitted.
**Note:**This API must be called after the `ready` event is emitted.
**Note:** To see example return values of this API compared to other locale and language APIs, see [`app.getPreferredSystemLanguages()`](#appgetpreferredsystemlanguages).
**Note:** When unable to detect locale country code, it returns empty string.
### `app.getSystemLocale()`
Returns `string` - The current system locale. On Windows and Linux, it is fetched using Chromium's `i18n` library. On macOS, `[NSLocale currentLocale]` is used instead. To get the user's current system language, which is not always the same as the locale, it is better to use [`app.getPreferredSystemLanguages()`](#appgetpreferredsystemlanguages).
Different operating systems also use the regional data differently:
* Windows 11 uses the regional format for numbers, dates, and times.
* macOS Monterey uses the region for formatting numbers, dates, times, and for selecting the currency symbol to use.
Therefore, this API can be used for purposes such as choosing a format for rendering dates and times in a calendar app, especially when the developer wants the format to be consistent with the OS.
**Note:** This API must be called after the `ready` event is emitted.
**Note:** To see example return values of this API compared to other locale and language APIs, see [`app.getPreferredSystemLanguages()`](#appgetpreferredsystemlanguages).
### `app.getPreferredSystemLanguages()`
Returns `string[]` - The user's preferred system languages from most preferred to least preferred, including the country codes if applicable. A user can modify and add to this list on Windows or macOS through the Language and Region settings.
The API uses `GlobalizationPreferences` (with a fallback to `GetSystemPreferredUILanguages`) on Windows, `\[NSLocale preferredLanguages\]` on macOS, and `g_get_language_names` on Linux.
This API can be used for purposes such as deciding what language to present the application in.
Here are some examples of return values of the various language and locale APIs with different configurations:
* For Windows, where the application locale is German, the regional format is Finnish (Finland), and the preferred system languages from most to least preferred are French (Canada), English (US), Simplified Chinese (China), Finnish, and Spanish (Latin America):
* On macOS, where the application locale is German, the region is Finland, and the preferred system languages from most to least preferred are French (Canada), English (US), Simplified Chinese, and Spanish (Latin America):
Both the available languages and regions and the possible return values differ between the two operating systems.
As can be seen with the example above, on Windows, it is possible that a preferred system language has no country code, and that one of the preferred system languages corresponds with the language used for the regional format. On macOS, the region serves more as a default country code: the user doesn't need to have Finnish as a preferred language to use Finland as the region,and the country code `FI` is used as the country code for preferred system languages that do not have associated countries in the language name.

## Planned Breaking API Changes (20.0)
### Behavior Changed: V8 Memory Cage enabled
The V8 memory cage has been enabled, which has implications for native modules
which wrap non-V8 memory with `ArrayBuffer` or `Buffer`. See the [blog post
about the V8 memory cage](https://www.electronjs.org/blog/v8-memory-cage) for
more details.
### API Changed: `webContents.printToPDF()`
`webContents.printToPDF()` has been modified to conform to [`Page.printToPDF`](https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol/tot/Page/#method-printToPDF) in the Chrome DevTools Protocol. This has been changes in order to
address changes upstream that made our previous implementation untenable and rife with bugs.
console.log(`Wrote PDF successfully to ${pdfPath}`)
})
}).catch(error=>{
console.log(`Failed to write PDF to ${pdfPath}: `,error)
})
```
### Default Changed: renderers without `nodeIntegration: true` are sandboxed by default
Previously, renderers that specified a preload script defaulted to being
unsandboxed. This meant that by default, preload scripts had access to Node.js.
In Electron 20, this default has changed. Beginning in Electron 20, renderers
will be sandboxed by default, unless `nodeIntegration: true` or `sandbox: false`
is specified.
If your preload scripts do not depend on Node, no action is needed. If your
preload scripts _do_ depend on Node, either refactor them to remove Node usage
from the renderer, or explicitly specify `sandbox: false` for the relevant
renderers.
### Removed: `skipTaskbar` on Linux
On X11, `skipTaskbar` sends a `_NET_WM_STATE_SKIP_TASKBAR` message to the X11
window manager. There is not a direct equivalent for Wayland, and the known
workarounds have unacceptable tradeoffs (e.g. Window.is_skip_taskbar in GNOME
requires unsafe mode), so Electron is unable to support this feature on Linux.
### API Changed: `session.setDevicePermissionHandler(handler)`
The handler invoked when `session.setDevicePermissionHandler(handler)` is used
has a change to its arguments. This handler no longer is passed a frame
[`WebFrameMain`](api/web-frame-main.md), but instead is passed the `origin`, which
is the origin that is checking for device permission.
## Planned Breaking API Changes (19.0)
### Removed: IA32 Linux binaries
This is a result of Chromium 102.0.4999.0 dropping support for IA32 Linux.
This concludes the [removal of support for IA32 Linux](#removed-ia32-linux-support).
## Planned Breaking API Changes (18.0)
### Removed: `nativeWindowOpen`
Prior to Electron 15, `window.open` was by default shimmed to use
`BrowserWindowProxy`. This meant that `window.open('about:blank')` did not work
to open synchronously scriptable child windows, among other incompatibilities.
Since Electron 15, `nativeWindowOpen` has been enabled by default.
See the documentation for [window.open in Electron](api/window-open.md)
for more details.
