patch to enable binding QObject to the javascript environment of a QWebInspector

The attached patch enables QObjects to be bound to global variables in the javascript environment of the inspector frontend. This is useful for writing alternate inspector frontends in javascript which need additional native functionality. It's a lighter-weight alternative from using an NPAPI plugin.

The code which instantiates QWebInspector uses this by setting the dynamic property "q_inspector_js_objects" on the QWebInspector. The value of this property should be a QMap<QString,QVariant>mapping global variable name to QObject.

I have used this to add support for eclipse/chrome remote debugging in QtTestBrowser.
