Sandboxed renderers and service worker preload realms ran a webpack bundle
(sandbox_bundle / preload_realm_bundle) that built the preload scripts'
`process` object and `require`, assembled the `electron` module from the
JavaScript API wrappers, registered the <webview> element and then compiled
and ran each preload script. With the API modules now provided by their
bindings, the rest moves to C++ (shell/renderer/preload_environment.cc):
- `process` is a native EventEmitter carrying the same properties as
before, plus getProcessMemoryInfo(); 'loaded', 'exit', 'document-start'
and 'document-end' are emitted on it directly.
- `require('electron')` returns a module object whose properties load their
binding on first access.
- Preload scripts are compiled with CreatePreloadScript() and called with
(require, process, exports, module, global); failures are logged and
reported as 'preload-error' as before.
The only JavaScript Electron still evaluates in a sandboxed renderer is the
<webview> element implementation, now its own `webview_bundle`, and only in
renderers that enable `webviewTag`. The `process` npm polyfill is no longer
needed.

it is never produced now
The `vendor` directory is a remnant of times long since gone when we had
brightray and libchromiumcontent (never forget). It is currently the
hope to a single header file that afaics we do not need anymore and
randomly pyyaml gets cloned there but that is easily movable.
This commit removes all references to the vendor directory from scripts,
docs, helpers, etc. and removes the directory itself.
* refactor: use js instead of boto for s3put
* replace merge-electron-checksums.py with js, remove boto
* fix auth
* actually pass the env to execute()
* Fix URLs and Paths in docs/
* Avoiding link break to /docs/development/updgrading-chrome.md
* Fix URLs and Paths in docs/ #2
* Removed double spaces in docs
renamed a few occurances of "web page" to "renderer"
renamed a few files that had "browser" in their name to "main-process"
note that there are still many occurances of web page.
