Generate files to use Emscripten bindings from outside Emscripten
We are stabilizing webgpu.h, and that process requires many (mostly
small) breaking changes to the header. Right now, some projects are
relying on Emscripten's and Dawn's implementations of webgpu.h to be in
sync, but this creates challenges because we need to make many separate
breaking changes.
This change forks Emscripten's WebGPU bindings into Dawn (in
//third_party) in such a way that they don't have to be checked into the
Emscripten repository. This way we can keep Dawn's bindings and Dawn's
fork of the Emscripten bindings in sync (approximately) in the Dawn
repository.
Projects depending on Emscripten and Dawn to be in sync should use this
fork instead, until we've finished the webgpu.h changes and contributed
the bindings back up to Emscripten in one big breaking release that
should have minimal to no breakage afterward.
For ease of diffing this commit overwrites the verbatim copies of
library_{,html5_}webgpu.js added in the previous commit, with a few
updates to bring it in sync with Dawn (though it may not be fully in
sync - it has only been minimally tested so far).
Example of using the resulting generated files from outside GN:
https://github.com/kainino0x/webgpu-cross-platform-demo/compare/dawnwasm
The generated files can only be generated using the GN build; CMake
rules haven't been implemented, and the existing Emscripten build rules
for CMake have been removed.
Note, since these bindings were designed to live inside Emscripten, they
rely on some Emscripten internals.
Symbols in rough order from less stable to more stable:
- `$stackSave` - changed recently
- `$stackRestore` - changed recently
- `$callUserCallback`
- `$stringToUTF8OnStack`
- `$stringToNewUTF8`
- `$stringToUTF8`
- `$lengthBytesUTF8`
- `$readI53FromI64`
- `$findCanvasEventTarget`
- `$warnOnce`
Generator internals, these seem stable:
- `mergeInto`
- `C_STRUCTS`
- `LibraryManager.library`
The build rules also depend on:
- the location of `gen_struct_info.py` (which recently changed from
`tools/` to `tools/maint/`)

Dawn is an open-source and cross-platform implementation of the WebGPU standard. More precisely it implements webgpu.h that is a one-to-one mapping with the WebGPU IDL. Dawn is meant to be integrated as part of a larger system and is the underlying implementation of WebGPU in Chromium.
Dawn provides several WebGPU building blocks:
