According to cmake documents, we cannot assume CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR is a
relative path. This commit fixes the "no rule to make libjsoncpp.a"
error by passing -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib to jsoncpp external project.
When building on Debian/Ubuntu with install prefix /usr (e.g. in PPA builds) the CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR is resolved to lib/x86_64-linux-gnu. For jsoncpp external project this is never the case because the install prefix is not /usr. Remove multiarch part from libdir if there.
This copies jsoncpp.cmake from ethereum/cpp-dependencies repo and adds BUILD_BYPRODUCT information to ExternalProject configuration (required by Ninja).
In my system I have gcc 7.1.1 and there I get a lot of warnings which
fail the build due to implicit fallthroughs in switch statements.
Some examples can be seen here:

This PR proposes a simple solution, which is to ignore the warning for
both gcc and clang.
This commit is the culmination of several months of work to decouple Solidity from the webthree-umbrella so that it can be developed in parallel with cpp-ethereum (the Ethereum C++ runtime) and so that even for the Solidity unit-tests there is no hard-dependency onto the C++ runtime.
The Tests-over-IPC refactoring was a major step in the same process which was already committed.
This commit contains the following changes:
- A subset of the CMake functionality in webthree-helpers was extracted and tailored for Solidity into ./cmake. Further cleanup is certainly possible.
- A subset of the libdevcore functionality in libweb3core was extracted and tailored for Solidity into ./libdevcore. Further cleanup is certainly possible
- The gas price constants in EVMSchedule were orphaned into libevmasm.
- Some other refactorings and cleanups were made to sever unnecessary EVM dependencies in the Solidity unit-tests.
- TravisCI and Appveyor support was added, covering builds and running of the unit-tests (Linux and macOS only for now)
- A bug-fix was made to get the Tests-over-IPC running on macOS.
- There are still reliability issues in the unit-tests, which need immediate attention. The Travis build has been flipped to run the unit-tests 5 times, to try to flush these out.
- The Emscripten automation which was previously in webthree-umbrella was merged into the TravisCI automation here.
- The development ZIP deployment step has been commented out, but we will want to read that ONLY for release branch.
Further iteration on these changes will definitely be needed, but I feel these have got to sufficient maturity than holding them back further isn't winning us anything. It is go time :-)
