resource loading is broken in Android builds with the custom linker disabled

Reported by danielmi...@gmail.com, Jul 23 2016

Issue description

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Build for Android with the following in the configuration for gn:

chrome_public_apk_use_chromium_linker = false
chrome_public_apk_load_library_from_apk = false

Next, visit some of the broken tests at https://badssl.com/.

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
Text is missing from the HTTPS interstitial pages in builds without the custom Chromium linker.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 51.0.2704.81  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.0.1
Flash Version: 

The Chromium linker appears to be incompatible with exec-based spawning on Android right now (crashes with a null pointer dereference in one of the C++ init constructors called while loading a library - I'll file a separate issue about that problem), so the lack of fully working builds without this is a pain point for CopperheadOS.

This appears to be because resource loading / packing is somewhat broken in builds without this.
