The update process of Chromium has been a bit bumpy on our side, because
version 54 also did the switch from GYP to GN so it wasn't just a matter
of updating the upstream-info file.
I've tested the Flash plugin (which runs fine) and WideVine manually,
although I couldn't get WideVine to work (I was running this within a VM
though).
So if people want to use WideVine they need to use Chrome instead until
we got this sorted out.
VM test results along with builds for all platforms can be found here:

I'm going to backport these changes to stable as soon as the
tests/builds succeed there as well.
Closes: #19565Closes: #20120
This should now be the upstream default and there also is no more flag
for GN to set it, so we'll no longer need it on our side as well.

This is the standalone version of GN used currently solely for building
Chromium. An upstream bug report is available at
https://crbug.com/504074 to support a standalone build without needing
various components from the Chromium source tree.
Because there isn't a standalone vrsion available, I'm choosing
0.0.0.${date} as the version scheme here so that we don't conflict with
versioned releases from upstream someday[TM].
