This commit upgrades gRPC to protobuf v25.0 and makes some fixes to
account for upb changes. One major change is that upb has been merged
into the protobuf repo, so we can now drop the separate `@upb`
dependency. Another is that `.upb.c` files no longer exist and there are
new `.upb_minitable.h` and `.upb_minitable.c` files. The longer
filenames exceeded a Windows restriction, so to work around that I
renamed the `upb-generated` directory to just `upb-gen`, and likewise
for `upbdefs-generated`.
- Extract build metadata for some external dependencies from bazel
build. This is achieved by letting extract_metadata_from_bazel_xml.py
analyze some external libraries and sources. The logic is basically the
same as for internal libraries, I only needed to teach
extract_metadata_from_bazel_xml.py which external libraries it is
allowed to analyze.
* currently, the list of source files is automatically determined for
`z`, `upb`, `re2` and `gtest` dependencies (at least for the case where
we're building in "embedded" mode - e.g. mostly native extensions for
python, php, ruby etc. - cmake has the ability to replace some of these
dependencies by actual cmake dependency.)
- Eliminate the need for manually written gen_build_yaml.py for some
dependencies.
- Make the info on target dependencies in build_autogenerated.yaml more
accurate and complete. Until now, there were some depdendencies that
were allowed to show up in build_autogenerated.yaml and some that were
being skipped. This made generating the CMakeLists.txt and Makefile
quite confusing (since some dependencies are being explicitly mentioned
and some had to be assumed by the build system).
- Overhaul the Makefile
* the Makefile is currently only used internally (e.g. for ruby and PHP
builds)
* until now, the makefile wasn't really using the info about which
targets depend on what libraries, but it was effectively hardcoding the
depedendency data (by magically "knowing" what is the list of all the
stuff that e.g. "grpc" depends on).
* After the overhaul, the Makefile.template now actually looks at the
library dependencies and uses them when generating the makefile. This
gives a more correct and easier to maintain makefile.
* since csharp is no longer on the master branch, remove all mentions of
"csharp" targets in the Makefile.
Other notable changes:
- make extract_metadata_from_bazel_xml.py capable of resolving workspace
bind() rules (so that it knows the real name of the target that is
referred to as e.g. `//external:xyz`)
TODO:
- [DONE] ~~pkgconfig C++ distribtest~~
- [DONE} ~~update third_party/README to reflect changes in how some deps
get updated now.~~
Planned followups:
- cleanup naming of some targets in build metadata and buildsystem
templates: libssl vs boringssl, ares vs cares etc.
- further cleanup of Makefile
- further cleanup of CMakeLists.txt
- remote the need from manually hardcoding extra metadata for targets in
build_autogenerated.yaml. Either add logic that determines the
properties of targets automatically, or use metadata from bazel BUILD.

Upgrade apple platform deployment_target versions to fix the cocoapods
push of BoringSSL-GRPC about the following error:
```
ld: file not found: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/lib/arc/libarclite_macosx.a
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
```
ref: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/725300
This also aligns with the versions required by
[protobuf](https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/pull/10652)
```
ios.deployment_target = '10.0'
osx.deployment_target = '10.12'
tvos.deployment_target = '12.0'
watchos.deployment_target = '6.0'
```
This enforces entire script to exit with error if any of the
pre-install command fails. The error exit marks the pod install
as failure and therefore prompting user's immediate attention.
Previoulsy pre-install script might siliently fail partially and
left corrupted cocoapod cahce which causes a number of build issues
during version upgrade
