Summary [GTK] Support replacing HTML content

Have a method on the WebView to set the HTML content of the WebView without adding a new history item. This is desirable when rendering error pages, as currently all the methods for loading HTML into the WebView adds a new history item.

Add attachment proposed patch, testcase, etc.

You can do this already using webkit_web_view_load_alternate_html(). If you call it during the emission of the load-failed signal, then the back/forward list will not be modified. Going to close this because I think that's all you need, right?

I was having more of a problem showing (default) pages for the HTTP status codes, as those don't usually trigger load-failed. I'll see if calling it during decide-policy does what I need it to, and if so I'll close this issue.

It does behave as I want during a decide-policy callback. As such I'm closing the issue now. The only drawback of that approach is that I require the Content-Length header for error pages. Thanks for your quick response, I'm closing the issue now.
