[webkit-dev] Moving WTF out of JavaScriptCore

We've been talking about moving WTF out of JavaScriptCore for a long
time.  We believe we're nearly there.
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75673

This will mean that WTF will be built as a separate static library on all ports.

The plan is to do this move all in one piece, after work hours PST,
when the tree is least active.

It won't be the most beautiful transition (as we're likely to break at
least one port in the process), but we'll try not to make too much of
a mess.

We believe all the ports are ready for the move, except AppleWin:
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75897

Once AppleWin is ready we'll schedule a date for the transition and
announce it one this thread.

Thanks!
