[webkit-dev] Replacing PHP with Python in Layout Tests

Hello Contributors, To help reduce the number of dependencies WebKit’s tools have, I would like to replace our PHP tests (and resources used by tests) with Python 3 CGI scripts. I’ve already attempted to convert a few dozen PHP tests and resources to demonstrate that this is both possible and that the resulting Python is comparable to the existing PHP. Additionally, as advertised in Big Sur, PHP is only included for compatibility with legacy software and is not recommended. There are still a few issues to resolve (namely, an issue with Python 3 on some of our Windows machines), in the mean time, I want to determine if other platforms have any issues with replacing our PHP tests with Python 3.
