[GTK] Add support for GTK3 plugins

• Component: WebKit2
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Carlos Garcia Campos]

We currently have a gtk2 based plugin process mainly for flash (which is very sad) and a few other plugins that use gtk2, but many other plugins don't even use gtk at all. We could build a lighter plugin process based on GTK3, used by default for all the plugins expect the ones requiring GTK2. And of course the default plugin process will support GTK3 plugins.

We use WebCorePlatformGTK2, so I think this should be PluginProcessGTK2 to maintain consistency.

These files are generated in the shared CMakeLists.txt file now, so I think we can just remove these lines.
