Hi all!

After a hard time of migrating the webkit1 vimb to new webkit2 process model.
The first feature reduces release is ready to use.

I thank Robert Timm, Joachim Desroches, Patrick Steinhardt and Virgil Dupras
for their contribution that made this release possible.

It was necessary to remove some of the features to migrate vimb to webkit2. I
hope we'll get them into it soon.

Changed
-------

* completely rebuild of vimb on webkit2 api.
* Syntax for the font related gui settings has be changed.
  Fonts have to be given as `[ font-style | font-variant | font-weight | 
font-stretch ]? font-size font-family`
  Example `set input-font-normal=bold 10pt "DejaVu Sans Mono"` instead of
  previous `set input-fg-normal=DejaVu Sans Mono Bold 10` 
* Renames some settings to consequently use dashed setting names. Following
  settings where changed.
  ```
  previous setting - new setting name
