Second take at the webkit/midori bump...

There's support for libgtk2 & libgtk3, though libgtk2 is always needed
for the plugin system.

GL* support was only tested via mesa software renderer.

Wayland support wasn't enabled because it still needs gtk2 (plugins) -
this could possibly be patched away.

Multimedia support is automatic via detection of gst1-plugins-base,
ideally this should be an option but right now opencv+gst generate a
dependency loop if gstreamer1 is selected. Also codecs will need to be
catered by the user via the appropiate gst selects.

MIPS support was disabled pending libatomic support for
__sync_fetch_and_add_8 which is handled there for some 32-bit
architectures.
Update for v2: MIPS(eb) SIGBUSes, so disabled in general, kept the
libatomic tweak for reference. MIPSel untested.

Possible TODOs:
Wayland in a proper way, granite support, gcr support, more arch
testing/support.

v2:
* Needs NPTL [Gustavo]
  It uses pthread_getattr_np()

* Handle libatomic [Gustavo]
  Needed for i386, mips & mipsel at least.

* Deprecate libgail, no longer used by any package [Gustavo]

v1:

* Bump webkitgtk to version 2.4.x in a versioned package.
  This is because midori can't use 2.6.x or 2.8.x and this way we can
  have another webkitgtk package in parallel for other uses.
  The series is still security-supported upstream.

 * Bump midori to version 0.5.9.
  No effort was made to enable support for the old webkit 1.x. series,
  it may be possible to do so but it makes no sense.

* Deprecate old webkit package.
  Security bugs, build issues, general instability.

Gustavo Zacarias (5):
  gcc-final: install libatomic
  webkitgtk24: new package
  midori: bump to version 0.5.9
  webkit: mark as deprecated
  libgail: mark as deprecated
