Windows 7 was end-of-lifed on January 14, 2020. We don't support this
system, but we'd like to have a best-effort to work there.
It does look like Chromium is missing some libraries on Win 7, however
it still manages to work there. To support this usecase, this patch
starts printing console warning about missing libraries on Win 7 only
instead of refusing to launch.
Fixes#3496
New webkit build, generated by 19f21b1bdee3e26aa22b344f1275ee3acf80749a, changed webkit build
layout: now there are subfolders that contain libraries and executables, and some of the dependencies are no longer bundled.
This patch:
- teaches launch doctor new directories structure: subfolders are now inspected for missing dependencies, and they are also used in the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`.
- adds `libevent` and `libicudata` libs to the mapping for ubuntu 18.04
WebKit WPE assumes `libglesv2.so` is available on the host system
and uses `dlopen` to open it.
This patch starts using `ldconfig -p` to check if the library
exists on the system.

The original plan was to rnu some checks against libc version the
binary is compiled with, but these turn out to be a little complicated:
parsing out libc version from both static binary and host system
requires text processing, and it's hard to make sure it works reliably
across distributions.
Instead, let's start with a very particular check against running
Firefox on Ubuntu 16.04.

Missing dependencies is #1 problem with launching on Linux.
This patch starts validating browser dependencies before launching
browser on Linux. In case of a missing dependency, we will abandon
launching with an error that lists all missing libs.
