High level question tangentially related to this patch: will workspace builds
allow for changing a file in WebCore, and rebuilding just WebCore `make -C
Source/WebCore` without linking all dependent projects? Often, engineers know
that there is no API change, and relinking everything would waste time.

$(MAKEFILE_LIST)))../Internal/WebKit/WebKit.xcworkspace \

I'm curious why this patch touches so many files, as opposed to just removing
this line.
