Week 04 updates on QtWebKit stable branches (v2.1 and v2.1.x)

QtWebKit 2.1 is quite stable and no more changes are planned. It'll probably be released next week or so. The work is now focused on QtWebKit-2.1.x, which will have HTML5 multimedia features.

As mentioned in the previous post, the qtwebkit-2.2 branch has been removed. Please use the new qtwebkit-2.1.x branch.
