Patch to fix the bug

The code in webkit assumes MIME types will be lower case, but
QNetworkAccessManager returns the mime type exactly as it is sent by the remote
server. The RFC says mime types are case-insensitive, so in the case of the URL
above which sends image/GIF things should work just fine. Unfortunately that is
not the case, qtwebkit believes this mime type to be unsupported wheras
image/gif is fine. The fix is simply to lowercase the mimetype as it is passed
from QNAM to webkit.
