Remove third_party\python_26.

The last user was ChromeFrame (recently removed) and pyauto. I do not believe
pyauto_functional.py is still used.

Committed patchset #2 manually as r244676 (presubmit successful).

This broke running gyp_chromium on Cygwin.  See this code:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/codesearch#chromium/src/build/gyp_chromium...

Will Chromium continue to ship its own Python going forward, or should I just
make sure that native win32 python wins out on PATH?

Ah! My 'git gs python_26' failed to find this file because it had no extension.
depot_tools includes a python installation but that's likely not of comfort for
you.

I don't mind much reinstating it but please understand that you'll be stuck on
2.6 while the others will be on 2.7, not a comfortable place to be anyhow.

I think the best thing would be for depot_tools/python to become the
single, hermetic win32 python used everywhere.  When I twiddle my PATH to
point at a win32 python and gclient sync, I get the error:
download_from_google_storage --no_resume --platform=win32 --no_auth
--bucket chromium-gn -s src/tools/gn/bin/win/gn.exe.sha1
C:\python_27\files\python.exe: can't open file
'/src/depot_tools/download_from_google_storage.py': [Errno 2] No such file
or directory

So we're already assuming it.  update_depot_tools.bat should probably just
fetch it unconditionally.

So you volunteer to do it?

I'm fine with you reverting this CL to unblock all cygwin users, but keep in
mind you open yourself to being broken again once someone checks in 2.7 only
python code.

I'm happy to hack some shell scripts until it works for me, but I don't
want to become the expert and maintainer for it.  =/

Maybe we should do a survey and see how many Chromium devs use Cygwin.  If
it's < 4, Chromium should probably drop support for this configuration and
remove it from the docs.

That doesn't seem worth it.
