This disables header checking for split static libraries. In addition to the internal issues discussed in the added comment to split_static_library.gni, there is a circular include cycle between //chrome/browser and //chrome/browser/ui. Both of these are split static libraries, so enabling check for this configuration would additionally require listing all of the split ui targets in the allow_circular_includes_from annotation in the browser target.
Since this is only for official builds, we still get header checking on the normal builds so there should be no missing coverage for header checking.

Previously this was forced to a source set because it was too large for official Windows builds to handle as a static library.
This uses the split_static_library template for non-component official Windows builds so it can be a static library now.
Updates the split_static_library template to handle the case where an output name is specified.

This separates out the default values of configs for the various target types into well-named global variables that can be referred to in different places.
This allows us to move the set_defaults calls for various templates to the places where those templates are defined rather than putting them all in BUILDCONFIG. An example of this is the test() target defaults, where the actual template is declared in a .gni file but the defaults have to be global.

This is a new function of GN that allows us to automatically split large
static libraries on Windows where the size becomes too large.
