Revert "Resubmit #2: Enable WebGPU for Android builds"

This reverts commit e9e3257cc233916311b8f6713f618cebc9fc95cc.

Reason for revert: Chrome on Android is currently triggering an LLD bug, blocking the Dawn roll into Chromium: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1422246

Original change's description:
> Resubmit #2: Enable WebGPU for Android builds
>
> Non-component Android builds were being blocked by ANGLE producing
> multiple .so files, but a previous Dawn change has temporarily
> disabled ANGLE in Dawn on Android, clearing the way for this change.
>
> Also activates the "Enable Unsafe WebGPU" and "WebGPU Developer
> Features" flags in about:flags.
>
> Previously reverted due to some failing gl_tests. Fixed in:
> https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/4209568
>
> Another test failure was found after landing the previous iteration of
> this CL. The fix is contained within this CL directly.
>
> Additionally there were some Vulkan crashes that occured while it
> was enabled. Fixed in:
> https://dawn-review.googlesource.com/c/dawn/+/117594
>
> This commit is expected to increase the binary size of Chrome on Android
> by about 1.5Mb. This is mostly due to the new inclusion of the Dawn
> library, which provides Chrome's cross-platform implementation of the
> WebGPU API. Because WebGPU is a large new feature a proportional size
> increase is to be expected. By comparison a roughly equivalent library,
> ANGLE, also adds approximately the same amount to the binary size.
>
> See https://groups.google.com/a/google.com/g/webgpu-developers/c/g2NB5rR2R2A/m/73b9HQC2AgAJ
> for further discussion about the size impact.

Build overrides in GN

This directory is used to allow different products to customize settings for repos that are DEPS'ed in or shared.

For example: V8 could be built on its own (in a “standalone” configuration), and it could be built as part of Chromium. V8 might define a top-level target, //v8:d8 (a simple executable), that should only be built in the standalone configuration. To figure out whether or not it should be in a standalone configuration, v8 can create a file, build_overrides/v8.gni, that contains a variable, build_standalone_d8 = true. and import it (as import(“//build_overrides/v8.gni”) from its top-level BUILD.gn file.

Chromium, on the other hand, might not need to build d8, and so it would create its own build_overrides/v8.gni file, and in it set build_standalone_d8 = false.

The two files should define the same set of variables, but the values can vary as appropriate to the needs of the two different builds.

The build.gni file provides a way for projects to override defaults for variables used in //build itself (which we want to be shareable between projects).

TODO(crbug.com/588513): Ideally //build_overrides and, in particular, //build_overrides/build.gni should go away completely in favor of some mechanism that can re-use other required files like //.gn, so that we don't have to keep requiring projects to create a bunch of different files to use GN.
