[webkit-dev] No more build breaks.

If you're currently using "svn commit" or "git svn dcommit" to commit your
patches, please consider using "bugzilla-tool land-diff" instead.

Why?
1.  bugzilla-tool updates (and optionally closes) the bug for you when
you're done.

2.  bugzilla-tool makes a nice commit entry automatically for you (not quite
as cool as commit-log-editor yet, but close).

3.  MOST IMPORTANT: bugzilla-tool land-diff will automatically build and run
the layout tests before landing!
     a. Impossible break at least one platform's bots when using
bugzilla-tool!
     b. Impossible to inadvertently land when the tree is red!

If you don't have time to build and run the tests before committing, you can
always mark your patch for commit-queue+ instead and the commit queue script
will commit it for you (after building and running the tests).

See "bugzilla-tool --help" for more information.
