REVISION SUMMARY
  Unfortunately it relies on Qt WebKit features quite intensely, so a few
  godawful hacks were necessary to make it work. Most of those are needed
  to workaround restrictions of QWebChannel as bridge to the browser page.
  
  We gain:
  + Independence from WebKit
  + Support for newer JS and HTML features in scripts
  
  We lose:
  
  - Performance (especially memory use)
  - Independence from WebEngine
  - Sanity

TEST PLAN
  Tested the detailed memory info pages on a few processes, info is
  correct and the page seems to work fully.

REPOSITORY
  R111 KSysguard Library

BRANCH
  master
