[GTK] Add support for running unit tests in the web process

• Component: Tools / Tests
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Carlos Garcia Campos]

Some tests, like GObject DOM bindings API tests run entirely in the WebProcess, we could mke it easy to create these kind of tests. It could also be used to ATK tests.The idea is that the UI process test is just a proxy to run the tests in the web process using a web process extension.

Patch

It also includes the migration of the WebKitDOMNode test as a first example. We can migrate all others in follow up patches.

We have our WebKit2 GTK+ API unit tests in UIProcess/API/gtk/tests it can perfectly be moved to Tools, but not this patch independently, we would need to move the tests directory. Qt and EFL both also have their tests in UIProcess/API/port/tests, though. Maybe we could reorganize the tests moving everything into Tools/TestWebKitAPI having subdirs for every API: C, efl, qt, gtk, etc.

Updated patch

OK, I'm fine with moving the tests under Tools, fwiw, we can do that in a separate patch.
