Run `gn format` directly.

Currently the generation script runs the `gn.py` script through
depot_tools using `vpython3`. Instead. run the `gn` which is pulled in
through the DEPS file directly.

Note, this will only work on a linux, mac or windows machine as we only
pull `gn` for those versions. If we find we have developers on other
platforms, we may want to conditionalize this and fall back to the
python `gn.py` script to find `gn`.

This cuts about 4s off the gen time on my M3.

Dawn, a WebGPU implementation

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:

  • WebGPU C/C++ headers that applications and other building blocks use.
    • The webgpu.h version that Dawn implements.
    • A C++ wrapper for the webgpu.h.
  • A “native” implementation of WebGPU using platforms' GPU APIs: D3D12, Metal, Vulkan and OpenGL. See per API support for more details.
  • A client-server implementation of WebGPU for applications that are in a sandbox without access to native drivers
  • Tint is a compiler for the WebGPU Shader Language (WGSL) that can be used in standalone to convert shaders from and to WGSL.
