Mike Hommey ef3ad686ee Bug 1512504 - Remove support for MSVC. r=froydnj
Consequently, this removes:
- MOZ_LIBPRIO, which is now always enabled.
- non_msvc_compiler, which is now always true.
- The cl.py wrapper, since it's not used anymore.
- CL_INCLUDES_PREFIX, which was only used for the cl.py wrapper.
- NONASCII, which was only there to ensure CL_INCLUDES_PREFIX still
  worked in non-ASCII cases.

This however keeps a large part of detecting and configuring for MSVC,
because we still do need it for at least headers, libraries, and midl.

Depends on D19614

Protocol Buffers (protobuf) source is available at:

    https://github.com/google/protobuf

This code is covered under the BSD license (see COPYING.txt). Documentation is
available at https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/.

The tree's current version of the protobuf library is 3.4.1.

We do not include the protobuf tests or the protoc compiler.

# Upgrading the Protobuf Library

1. Get a new protobuf release from https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases

2. Run `$ ./toolkit/components/protobuf/upgrade_protobuf.sh ~/path/to/release/checkout/of/protobuf`.

3. Update the moz.build to export the new set of headers and add any new .cc
   files to the unified sources and remove old ones. Note that we only
   need:
   - files contained in the `libprotobuf_lite_la_SOURCES` target
   (https://github.com/google/protobuf/blob/master/src/Makefile.am)
   - the header files they need
   - gzip streams (for devtools)

4. Re-generate all .pb.cc and .pb.h files using `$ ./toolkit/components/protobuf/regenerate_cpp_files.sh`.
