[libcxx-dev] Requiring monorepo layout when building libc++ and libc++abi

[Louis Dionne via libcxx-dev]

I love what I'm seeing, which is a lot of enthusiasm. I'm also unsure about compiler-rt, and actually libunwind too. But it doesn't matter, cause we can take things slowly and try stuff out.

For starters, I'll get rid of obvious technical debt between libc++ and libc++abi. We can see where that takes us next. Just be on the look for Phab reviews if that's of interest to you.

Cheers,
Louis

The idea was to introduce a new top-level directory, e.g. cmake, to hold all the shared build infrastructure. Today, there are a number of cmake/Modules across compiler-rt, libcxx, libcxxabi, libunwind that started as pure copies have since diverged which makes changes particularly painful.

This would also allow build simplification and help with ordering issues we have today.
