Why is AuthenticationChallenge in the UIProcess and the others are in Shared. Can you explain how they will be used?

Weird spacing.

The paragraphing is weird here. How about some comments.

> WebKit2/Shared/API/c/WKProtectionSpaceTypes.h:27
> +#ifndef WKCredentialTypes_h
> +#define WKCredentialTypes_h

This should be WKProtectionSpaceTypes_h

> WebKit2/Shared/API/c/WKProtectionSpaceTypes.h:62
> +#endif /* WKCredentialTypes_h */

This one should also be WKProtectionSpaceTypes_h

> WebKit2/UIProcess/WebAuthenticationChallenge.h:36
> +class WebAuthenticationChallenge : public APIObject
> +{
> +public:

The { is in the wrong place.

Discussed this with Sam in person.  Taking a different approach.

First stage v1

This patch gets all the API objects and clients in place, and does IPC to tell the UIProcess a challenge has occurred, and allows the UIProcess to respond.

After this infrastructure is in place, filling in the following holes will commence:
1 - Actually shipping Challenge, ProtectionSpace, and Credential data across the IPC boundary instead of empty representations of them.
2 - Provide the proper WK2 API for apps to actually be able to work with those 3 objects
