It aligns better with the Filesystem Heirarchy Standard[1] to put our
program-specific helper programs that are not intended to be executed by
the user of the application in $prefix/libexec or in whatever the
packager sets as the CMake equivalent. Namely, on Debian systems this
should be /usr/lib/Ladybird or similar.

Now we will only load resources from $build/share/Lagom. On macOS, we
load from the bundle directory Contents/Resources instead. This
simplifies the commands and environment variables needed to execute
Ladybird from the build directory, and makes our install setup less
awkward for distributions and packagers.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

This template app from Android Studio should hopefully be more fun to
work on than the Qt wrapped application we were using before. :^)
It currently builds the native code using gradle rules, and has a stub
WebViewImplementationNative class that will wrap a c++ class of the same
name that inhertis from WebView::ViewImplementation. Spawning helper
processes and creating proper views in Kotlin is next on the list.
This will help a lot with developing chromes for different UI frameworks
where we can see which helper classes and processes are really using Qt
vs just using it to get at helper data.
As a bonus, remove Qt dependency from WebDriver.
Re-organize our helper files here a bit, to make a clearer distinction
between Qt-specific helpers and generic non-serenity helpers.
A future commit will move Lagom specific code from LibSQL to ladybird
as well, so that we can see about future generic apis for spawning
helper procesess.
We had a mismatch in the GUI Identifier property, causing warnings in
Xcode. It was also missing the Product Identifier Xcode property on
ladybird itself, causing another warning.
Copy all our helper processes to the ladybird.app bundle directory so
that they can be found by ``open ladybird.app`` and the Xcode debugger.
For the future, we should look in ../Resources for resources on macOS.
Copying resources to that directory requires more CMake-fu.
This patch brings over the WebContent process over from SerenityOS
to Ladybird, along with a new WebContentView widget that renders
web content in a separate process.
There's a lot of jank and FIXME material here, notably I had to re-add
manually pumped Core::EventLoop instances on both sides, in order to get
the IPC protocol running. This introduces a lot of latency and we should
work towards replacing those loops with improved abstractions.
The WebContent process is built separately here (not part of Lagom) and
we provide our own main.cpp for it. Like everything, this can be better
architected, it's just a starting point. :^)
