This is done to solve a problem where a string literal is implicitly cast
to a temporary std::string when calling webrtc::test::InitFieldTrialsFromString
which passes a pointer to the internal representation to
webrtc::field_trial::InitFieldTrialFromString(char*). This pointer is
stored for later use, but the temporary std::string is destroyed as soon
as the function returns.
Using webrtc::field_trial::InitFieldTrialFromString(char*) instead,
avoids the implicit casts (but the caller still needs to ensure that
the char* outlives the program). The validation previously done by
webrtc::test::InitFieldTrialsFromString can now be done by manually
calling webrtc::test::ValidateFieldTrialsStringOrDie(const std::string&).
Add system_wrappers:field_trial_default as a direct dependency to
various targets to allow including the field_trials_default.h header.
