            Bug ID: 275203
           Summary: [GLib] Import the libsysprof-capture source tree
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: aperez at igalia.com

Similarly to other third party projects, import the libsysprof-capture
source tree into Source/ThirdParty/, and integrate building it as part
of the CMake build.

This is a very small (7K LoC), self contained C library with a permissive
license compatible with the rest of the WebKit source code (BSD-2-Clause).
It will be used to add runtime tracing support for the WebKit GTK and WPE
ports.

While some Linux distributions have packages for the library, some
other distributions and cross-compilation environments like Yocto or
Buildroot may not have packages -- and we *really* want to be able to
tell people to run a command to produce a trace output even for release
builds, so in order to have that possibility, we need to make sure that
WebKit can be built with libsysprof-capture enabled by default in all
cases.
