Fixes#12794 by reverting the source tree splitup (c92dbff) to use the
source tarball directly into the main Chromium derivation and making the
whole source/ subdirectory obsolete. The reasons for this are explained
in 4f981b4f84.
This also now renames the "sources.nix" file to "upstream-info.nix",
which is a more proper name for the file, because it not only contains
"source code" but also the Chrome binaries needed for the proprietary
plugins (of course "source" could also mean "where to get it", but I
wanted to avoid this ambiguity entirely).
I have successfully built and tested this using the VM tests.
All results can be found here:

Assigning the channelMap by the function attrset argument at the
top-level of the test expression file may reference a different
architecture than we need for the tests.
So if we get the pkgs attribute by auto-calling, this will lead to test
failure because we have a different architecture for the test than for
the browser.

As of 6041cfe, the upstream-info.nix (back then it was called
sources.nix) is no longer in the source/ subdirectory, so we need to fix
that comment to say that the file is autogenerated from update.sh in the
*same* directory.

This has been the case before e45c211, but it turns out that it's very
useful to override the channel packages so we can run tests with
different Chromium build options.

This reverts commit 5979946c41.
I have tested this by building against the stable version of Chromium
and it seems to compile just fine, so it doesn't seem to be needed
anymore.

* the major change is to set TARGETDIR=${vardir}, and symlink from
${vardir} back to ${out} instead of the other way around. this
gives CP more liberty to write to more directories -- in particular
it seems to want to write some configuration files outside of conf?
* run.conf does not need 'export'
* minor tweaks to CrashPlanDesktop.patch
Only a aesthetics thingy, but also corrects the comment, because we're
essentially precompiling .py files, NOT the .pyc files (the latter are
the results).

This addresses #12794 so that we now have only a single tarball where we
base our build on instead of splitting the source into different outputs
first and then reference the outputs.
The reason I did this in the first place is that we previously built the
sandbox as a different derivation and unpacking the whole source tree
just for building the sandbox was a bit too much.
As we now have namespaces sandbox built in by default we no longer have
that derivation anymore. It still might come up however if we want to
build NaCl as a separate derivation (see #8560), but splitting the
source code into things only NaCl might require is already too much work
and doesn't weight out the benefits.
Another issue with the source splitup is that Hydra now has an output
limit for non-fixed-output derivations which we're already hitting.
Tested the build against the stable channel and it went well, but I
haven't tested running the browser.

We always do something like "fetchurl channelProduct", so let's move it
to getChannel directly so we can avoid those fetchurl calls all over the
place.
Also, we can still access subattributes from the fetchurl call if we
need to, so there really is no need to expose the product's attributes
directly.

Yes, I know I'm a bit nitpicky, but lines >80 chars are very ugly if you
have two windows side-by-side.
Thus no feature changes here.

The plugin was looking for pvr.hts.so.2.2.13, so as only pvr.hts.so was copied, the plugin would not load. This symlinks all variants of the name to the addons folder.
We now should have only the default.nix left in the source directory and
we can start to factor out the pieces into the Chromium main derivation
attributes.

There were two problems:
- because buildPhase is specified directly, preBuild ends up never being
executed; and
- the source is missing a header, resulting in an undefined reference error
The "sources.nix" also contains information about where to get binary
packages, so calling it "upstream-info.nix" fits better in terms of
naming.
Also, we're moving it away from the sources dir, because the latter will
soon vanish.

We're going to reference the patches in the Chromium main build rather
than applying it to the sources. So as a first step, this should keep
the patches away from the "source" subdirectory so we can make it flat.
