Use `constexpr` strings
This PR changes moves away from uses of `const char` with two
approaches. For `.cc` files, these types are turned into constexpr ones,
which gives the compiler more leeway for optimisations.
For the constants on header files, we are converting these instances to
`inline constexpr`, in order to also reduce string duplication across
the binary.

[CodeHealth] Avoid accidental const-copies I
This is of concern when passing vectors and strings, as unintended
(and often expensive) copies occur under the covers.
-- Make non-const and move in callee where appropriate.
-- Convert to string_view where appropriate.
-- Avoid stray const in a few places
Additionally, in a few places this cahnge removes things like
`std::function`, and unnecessary code like JSON parsing testing utils.
This change replaces all uses of `absl::optional` with `std::*` variants
for optional. This is in line with upstream recent changes making
`absl::optional` a `typedef` to the `std` type.
This change has been done using an automated script:
#!/bin/bash
function replace {
echo "Replacing $1 by $2"
git grep -l "$1" \
| cut -f1 -d: \
| sort \
| uniq \
| grep \
-e "\.h" \
-e "\.cc" \
-e "\.mm" \

| xargs sed -i "s/$1/$2/g"
}
function delete_line_with {
echo "Deleting lines with $1"
git grep -l "$1" \

| grep \
-e "\.h" \
-e "\.cc" \

| xargs sed -i "/$1/d"
}
function add_header {
echo "Adding header $1"
git diff --name-only HEAD \
| xargs ../tools/add_header.py --header "$1"
}
replace "absl::make_optional" "std::make_optional"

Make absl::optional a typedef for std::optional
This only changes the types around. It doesn't rewrite existing uses
to std::optional, which we can do incrementally.
absl::optional to std::optional seems to have two visible impacts.
First, the field order is different (bool first vs bool last).
std::optional's order (bool last) seems to be better overall, decreasing
binary size. Second, absl::optional's assertions crash with
__builtin_trap, while std::optional calls __libcpp_verbose_abort which
calls base::ImmediateCrash. __builtin_trap permits the compiler to
combine crash sites within a function but leads to worse crash
debugging. In base::ImmediateCrash, we'd made a conscious decision to
prefer debuggability and pay some binary size for it. The net size
increase brings our optional type in line with that preference.

Move bind.h, callback{,_forward,_helpers}.h into //base/functional
Forwarding headers remain in the old locations to ease migration.
Include paths for files in //base/functional/ are also fixed up to the
new canonical path; remaining fixups are deferred until followups to
minimize the risk of conflicts.

Singed exchange is an undesirable feature, which should not be allowed
in brave. This feature is guarded behind the feature flag
SignedHTTPExchange.
This change adds browser tests to the codebase to make sure that this
feature doesn't come to creep in into our codebase.
