Remove Chrome version from GPU program cache validity key

Reverts the Chrome-version component added in crrev.com/c/8162820, so
the Dawn revision is once again the sole key for the serialized GPU
model data.

The version check invalidates the cache on every Chrome milestone,
forcing a full shader recompile for all users on each update. Per
crbug.com/538727789, a stale cache is acceptable in practice: the cost
is missing newer ML Drift kernel optimizations, not incorrect results.
The remaining theoretical risk (an ML Drift change that alters the
shader binding layout without changing the fingerprint) is better
covered by an ML Drift-side test using a valid serialized model,
mirroring the existing Vulkan test, then by a Chrome-side version bump.

Bug: 538727789
Test: components_unittests --gtest_filter=*GpuCache*:*ManifestSolutionFactory*
Test: services_unittests --gtest_filter=*OnDeviceModel*

Logo Chromium

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.

To check out the source code locally, don't use git clone! Instead, follow the instructions on how to get the code.

Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.

Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure.

For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.

If you found a bug, please file it at https://crbug.com/new.
