This touches:
- noDefaultViewport;
- ignoreAllDefaultArgs;
- env;
- validateXYZ logic that was copying objects - we do not need that anymore;
- shuffles some converters closer to their usage.
This migrates Firefox to the protocol-based proxy implementation.
Benefits:
- supports secure web proxies (already supported by Chromium)
- unlocks support for SOCKS proxies with authentication
This patch detects Chromium crash with a sandboxing error and re-writes
the error to surface information nicely.

================================
To workaround sandboxing issues, do either of the following:
- (preferred): Configure environment to support sandboxing: https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/blob/master/docs/troubleshooting.md
- (alternative): Launch Chromium without sandbox using 'chromiumSandbox: false' option

References #2745
Show just a warning instead of preventing the launch on Firefox and WebKit to minimize the error rate / entry barrier.
Not fully sure if `console.warn` is okay for that.
Closes#1440
This generates typescript definitions based on the api.md, instead of autogenerating them from the typescript source code.
Now types
- only include the public api
- work with older versions of typescript
- include descriptions
- are more consistent
- are more complete
#6
This patch:
- removes `browserType.downloadBrowserIfNeeded()` method. The method
turned out to be ill-behaving and cannot not be used as we'd like to (see #1085)
- adds a `browserType.setExecutablePath` method to set a browser
exectuable.
With this patch, we take the following approach towards managing browser downloads:
- `playwright-core` doesn't download any browsers. In `playwright-core`, `playwright.chromium.executablePath()` returns `null` (same for firefox and webkit).
- clients of `playwright-core` (e.g. `playwright` and others) download browsers one way or another.
They can then configure `playwright` with executable paths and re-export the `playwright` object to their clients.
- `playwright`, `playwright-firefox`, `playwright-chromium` and `playwright-webkit` download
browsers. Once browsers are downloaded, their executable paths are saved to a `.downloaded-browsers.json` file. This file is read in `playwright/index.js` to configure browser executable paths and re-export the API.
- special case is `install-from-github.js` that also cleans up old browsers.
