Summary REGRESSION: NPAPI plugins can no longer throw JS Exceptions in Tot Webkit

Due to https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16829 NPAPI plugins haven't been able to use NPN_SetException() to throw exceptions in WebKit. However, [WebScriptObject throwException:] functioned from inside NPAPI plugins and could be used as a workaround. In ToT WebKit neither of these methods work anymore effectively leaving NPAPI plugins with no way to throw JS exceptions. This bug blocks Gears since we rely heavily on this functionality.

It looks like the http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/33979 (Merge squirrelfish branch into trunk.) is what broke this.
