Ok, I've added a signal 'current-toplevel' so that the auth feature can ask
webkit about that without messing it with internal details about
WebCore/WebKit. That keeps it plain C and completely reusable.

One problem is that I needed to add a marshaller from WebCore, and the current
system of generating them grepping through the source files in WebKit/gtk/
wasn't enough anymore. Instead of adding many more sources to grep (would slow
down compiles a lot) or hack up some smart system to just go through the
actually changed files (would slow down compiles somewhat, and needs to be
implemented) I've just reverted to the standard behavior of maintaining a
manual list of marshallers to generate. Adding one is a really rare situation,
and it takes 5 seconds at best, so I think adding extra-compile time for this
is the wrong kind of optimization.
