[GN] Generated Xcode project don't respect output_dir option

Reported by samo...@gmail.com, May 3 2018

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/66.0.3359.139 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Create executable target with non-default output_dir
2. Run gn gen out/Default --ide=xcode
3. Try to debug new executable

What is the expected behavior?
Xcode will launch executable

What went wrong?
Xcode says that it can't find executable in out/Default folder (and it is definitely not there)

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 66.0.3359.139  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.12.6
Flash Version: 

Change similar to https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/852459 is needed.

BTW, is there a way to create an issue without new issue wizard? Or maybe more appropriate categories should be added

Also: We are using GN for standalone project, and or output_dir is reassigned in toolchain for all executables.
Labels: Needs-Triage-M66
Labels: Triaged-ET TE-NeedsTriageHelp
The issue seems to be out of TE-scope as it is related to code. Hence, adding label TE-NeedsTriageHelp for further investigation from dev team.

Thanks...!!

I wasn't aware that we supported generating Xcode projects. I believe justin worked on this?

justin: If this isn't a feature we intend to support, please indicate that and WontFix.

If I recall correctly, sdefresne@ and liaoyuke@ did much of the initial work here, but I don't know if they are appropriate owners. Maybe brettw@ or dpranke@ can suggest an owner here?

samogot@gmail.com, this is marked as P2, so I assume it's not very urgent. Please let me know if it's blocking anything and you want it sooner. Thanks!

Thanks. It isn't blocking right now.

I'm going to make a CL fixing it later on, but I'm not sure when I'll be able to, so I've created bug first. The same is applicable for two other my issues: 839440 and 839447
