Quickstart
----------
-After gclient sync, run `fetch-gn` to make sure you have GN.

- gclient sync && python bin/fetch-gn

Run GN to generate your build files.
- gn gen out/Static --args='is_official_build=true'

+If you find you don't have `bin/gn`, make sure you've run these steps.

GN allows fine-grained settings for developers and special situations.

To see all the arguments available, you can run
- gn args out/Debug --list
+ bin/gn args out/Debug --list
Having generated your build files, run Ninja to compile and link Skia.

Other arguments like `is_debug` and `is_component_build` continue to work.
Tweaking `ndk_api` gives you access to newer Android features like Vulkan.
