The tarball from upstream seems to be generated on the fly, so the
output is not deterministic and using fetchzip makes this more reliable
as we have a recursively hashed output path without any of the
non-determinisms in tarballs.
Unfortunately, the build still fails on NixOS systems, because we need a
few more stuff in the build tree.

This is the standalone version of GN used currently solely for building
Chromium. An upstream bug report is available at
https://crbug.com/504074 to support a standalone build without needing
various components from the Chromium source tree.
Because there isn't a standalone vrsion available, I'm choosing
0.0.0.${date} as the version scheme here so that we don't conflict with
versioned releases from upstream someday[TM].
