DescriptionReland: Statically link own version of FreeType on Linux
For color font support, CFF and CFF2 rasterization, and OpenType font
variations, latest security fixes, Chrome needs an up-to-date version of
FreeType (more details on the bug). Since distributions are too far
behind in the shipped system FreeType versions, we need to start linking
in our own copy.
For distributions that build their own Chromium this CL introduces a
switch use_system_freetype which can be used to keep the old linking
configuration at the expense of risking introduction of text rendering
and security regressions if the system FreeType is too old.
Reland with fixed installer dependency expectations, after revert
