FAQ:
Q: Why does this directory exist?
A: libpng is pulled in through DEPS, but in order to build it using ninja, we
- need to create pnglibconf.h and pngprefix.h. We originally tried creating
- the file as an action in https://codereview.chromium.org/930283002/, but this
- apparently led to a race condition on Windows, where some builds failed to
- create the file in time for other files to include it. By checking these
- files directly into Skia, we eliminate the race condition.
