Adds NPAPI plugin support for Gtk and Qt-x11, r32489

This new patch addresses comments made here:
- ENABLE_NETSCAPE_PLUGIN_API on Qt is defined in WebCore.pro, as it was
difficult to do it in Platform.h.
- QtLibraries are deleted if correctly unloaded.
- I removed the dependency on libnspr4, I don't know where that came from.

Right now (on my setup), testing with GtkLauncher and QtLauncher:

- Acid3 gets to 94/100 on both platforms without crashing, although it gets
"linktest failed" on Qt, don't know if this is due to the patch.
- Flash semi-works in a very flacky way. It has problems with scrolling on Gtk
and YouTube videos stutter on Qt (other videos sites work, though). XEmbed
implementations are different and I've sent a patch for Qt that solves this a
little.
- Java doesn't load and I'm currently investigating why.
- Some other plugins don't load because they depend on XPCOM, i.e., totem video
plugins. Others don't work on Qt because of Gtk dependencies, like Gnash.
- Adobe Reader doesn't load because it needs display info before any PluginView
has been created, which will be difficult to solve right now.
