Eight!

For WebCore, I believe they all exist directly in the WebCore directory. Keep in mind that for some systems (Xcode, VS) the project file is actually a directory.

The way I determine where to add a new file is to pick an existing file in the same directory and grep for it in the various project files. Note that for the Xcode project file, you need to use Xcode's UI to add the file.

Yes. See http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/Unifying%20the%20build%20system
