utils: ipc: import mojo
Import mojo from the Chromium repository, so that we can use it for generating code for the IPC mechanism. The commit from which this was taken is: a079161ec8c6907b883f9cb84fc8c4e7896cb1d0 "Add PPAPI constructs for sending focus object to PdfAccessibilityTree" This tree has been pruned to remove directories that didn't have any necessary code: - mojo/* except for mojo/public - mojo core, docs, and misc files - mojo/public/* except for mojo/public/{tools,LICENSE} - language bindings for IPC, tests, and some mojo internals - mojo/public/tools/{fuzzers,chrome_ipc} - mojo/public/tools/bindings/generators - code generation for other languages No files were modified.

+# The Mojom Parser
+
+The Mojom format is an interface definition language (IDL) for describing
+interprocess communication (IPC) messages and data types for use with the
+low-level cross-platform
+[Mojo IPC library](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/mojo/public/c/system/README.md).
+
+This directory consists of a `mojom` Python module, its tests, and supporting
+command-line tools. The Python module implements the parser used by the
+command-line tools and exposes an API to help external bindings generators emit
+useful code from the parser's outputs.
+
+TODO(https://crbug.com/1060464): Fill out this documentation once the library
+and tools have stabilized.
