Add precompiled headers to GN build for large targets.

Turns on precompiled header support in the GN build on Windows, and adds the precompiled header config to most large-ish targets in the build.

Removes Windows files from the precompiled header. This does not seem to affect the build speed much because most Chrome files don't depend on Windows any more. And windows.h injects typedefs and defines that conflict with some third party libraries and prevent using precompiled headers for those targets or any target that includes them.

I counted ~50 files or bigger as large. The 50 file threshold is based on some previous approximate measurements (since the precompile step is an extra per-target compile, it can actually make small targets compile slower).

For borderline cases, I added the precompiled header flag if I thought it was likely to have more files added, and didn't add it if I thought the target was likely to be static.
