Attachment 13311: fix RemoveEventListener

------- Additional Comments from Ian Eng <ian.eng.webkit at gmail.com>
I think the problem is in kjs_window.cpp, Window::getJSEventListener, which
creates a JSEventListener object if it does not exist. The constructor of
JSEventListener makes JSValue GC-protected.

In Window::RemoveEventListener and DOMEventTargetNode::RemoveEventListener,
both calls getJSEventListener to check if a listener exists. This leaks both
JSEventListener and the JavaScript event listener object.

I added a new function Window::hasJSEventListener for checking if a
JSEventListener exists for a JS event listener object without creating a new
one.

Before the change, run-safari and visit Gmail, then exist. Safari reports:
LEAK: 2102 Node
LEAK: 158688 KJS::Node

After applying the patch, no message reported.
