News from the gtk-3 branch

[Peter Bloomfield <peterbloomfield bellsouth net>]

Balsa-2.5.0 was the first release from the git gtk3 branch.  Since that release, some more fallout from the 
deprecation of gdk_threads_{enter,leave} has been cleaned up in the branch, and some other nits have been 
picked.

In the gtk3 branch, we also have initial support for WebKit2 as the HTML engine; WebKit1 is still the 
default, but --with-html-widget=webkit2 has been added as a configure alternative.  It's been known to build 
and run and not crash, but is not yet widely tested.  It requires WebKitGtk version 1.11.92 or greater; 
version 2.0.0 should land in the repos shortly.

We'd appreciate all the testing we can get, as always with the caveat that it might not build, might build 
but not run, or might build and run with unspecified damage to who-knows-what.

Thanks for any feedback!

Peter
