      There are currently inconsistencies between our third party libraries' vendoring strategies. This creates significant pain when we have to patch third party libraries; this need has come up a few times during the v5 toolchain upgrade, SPM-3825. Arrive at a consistent strategy for all third party libraries, then update the documentation under src/third_party/README.md and the actual strategies used by all third-party libraries to reflect that strategy.
