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.

This change is not backward compatible, in the sense that this allow you to
override the packages which used to be overriden by the last stage of
stdenv. Note, this does not mean that these packages would be used by
stdenv.
This condition used to be implicit in the sense that the stdenvOverrides
uses pkgs_6, instead of pkgs_7 as its super set, and also that each stage of
the compiler is build again the bootstrap packages of the previous stage,
thus overriden by the stdenv.override function.
