Bug 573616 - [GTK] BrowserFunction only work in first browser instance
(Part 1)

Remove existing BrowserFunction implementation.

To provide synchronous BrowserFunction calls from JavaScript to Java,
SWT loads a native browser extension and communicates with it via
a private D-Bus. Existing implementation assumes a single instance of
the browser extension, but newer WebKitGTK versions create a separate
process per view, resulting in multiple extension instances.

The follow-up patch will provide an alternative BrowserFunction
implementation based on the XMLHttpRequest.
