I noticed we have a bit of a problem here, we are installing the
binaries in ${libexec}/webkitgtk-4.0/ (see LIBEXEC_INSTALL_DIR in
OptionsGTK.cmake) but we are also installing the injected bundle in
${libdir}/webkit2gtk-4.0/ (see PlatformGTK.cmake).

I suggest that we use webkit2gtk-4.0 in both cases.

You are right, if we use ${libexec}/webkitgtk-4.0/ we should probably add another directory ${libexec}/webkitgtk-4.0/webkit2 or something like that, similar to what we do for header files. But it's very unlikely that we add another wk API layer that has extensions and processes, so it's simpler to use webkit2gtk-4.0 directly. Please, file a new bug report for this.
