Revert 90805 - I am submitting this with LGTMs from agl@ and evanm@. I'm marking this as TBR=jam@ because he is on vacation. He previously LGTMed the reverted CL (link below) and there are not substantive changes since then.

Modify the Chrome Linux zygote to support a nacl_helper executable,
facilitating a special address-space layout as required by NaCl on ARM
and ATOM CPUs. In passing, simplify some shared elements of launching
NaCl modules in Chrome.

This is an update to a previously reverted CL. Please see
http://codereview.chromium.org/6995121 for the earlier reviews.

Patching nacl_helper CL into fresh branch.
