Use gcc precompiled headers (proof-of-concept)

After applying patch, copy WebKit/qt/WebKit_pch.h to
WebCore/platform/WebKit_pch.h

You might need to do 'make WebCore/platform/WebKit_pch.h.gch' before attempting
a build. Dependency tracking may not be correct, didn't verify.

If someone could try timing a build to see if this helps, that'd be great.

The Makefile change might also be a good example for how we can reduce some of
the lists of sources in the build system using GNU make syntax (though automake
limits exactly how much we can automate things).
