Revert of Make gclient ready for the Blink (DEPS to main project) transition (patchset #6 id:180001 of https://codereview.chromium.org/743083002/)
Reason for revert:
The test intoruced is flake (see crrev.com/753543006/).
Need to look into that with more patience as it reproduces only on precise.
Original issue's description:
> Make gclient ready for the Blink (DEPS to main project) transition
>
> This CL makes gclient understand correctly whether a git project is
> being moved from DEPS to an upper project and vice-versa.
> The driving use case for this is the upcoming Blink merge, where
> third_party/Webkit will be removed from DEPS (and .gitignore) and will
> become part of the main project.
>
> At present state, gclient leaves the .git folder around when a project
> is removed from DEPS, and that causes many problems.
>
> Furthermore this CL solves the performance problem of bisecting across
> the merge point. The subproject's (Blink) .git/ folder is moved to a
> backup location (in the main checkout root) and is restored when moving
> backwards, avoiding a re-fetch when bisecting across the merge point.
