Paul Elder 82ba73535c utils: ipc: import mojo
Import mojo from the Chromium repository, so that we can use it for
generating code for the IPC mechanism. The commit from which this was
taken is:
a079161ec8c6907b883f9cb84fc8c4e7896cb1d0 "Add PPAPI constructs for
sending focus object to PdfAccessibilityTree"

This tree has been pruned to remove directories that didn't have any
necessary code:
- mojo/* except for mojo/public
  - mojo core, docs, and misc files
- mojo/public/* except for mojo/public/{tools,LICENSE}
  - language bindings for IPC, tests, and some mojo internals
- mojo/public/tools/{fuzzers,chrome_ipc}
- mojo/public/tools/bindings/generators
  - code generation for other languages

# The Mojom Parser
The Mojom format is an interface definition language (IDL) for describing
interprocess communication (IPC) messages and data types for use with the
low-level cross-platform
[Mojo IPC library](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/mojo/public/c/system/README.md).
This directory consists of a `mojom` Python module, its tests, and supporting
command-line tools. The Python module implements the parser used by the
command-line tools and exposes an API to help external bindings generators emit
useful code from the parser's outputs.
TODO(https://crbug.com/1060464): Fill out this documentation once the library
and tools have stabilized.
