Henrik Kjellander b2d5577caf Move tools/mb -> tools-webrtc/mb
In addition to moving tools/mb -> tools-webrtc/mb, also
move webrtc/build/mb_config.pyl into tools-webrtc/mb
to match the default location better.
Remove Chromium-specific check for 'mb validate' that failed
due to doing this (we never cleaned that when we forked the code).

# MB - The Meta-Build wrapper
MB is a simple wrapper intended to provide a uniform interface to either
GYP or GN, such that users and bots can call one script and not need to
worry about whether a given bot is meant to use GN or GYP.
It supports two main functions:
1. "gen" - the main `gyp_chromium` / `gn gen` invocation that generates the
Ninja files needed for the build.
2. "analyze" - the step that takes a list of modified files and a list of
desired targets and reports which targets will need to be rebuilt.
We also use MB as a forcing function to collect all of the different
build configurations that we actually support for Chromium builds into
one place, in `//tools/mb/mb_config.pyl`.
