This commit removes the last reference to 'webkitgtk/gtk+-2', which in
turn contains the only reference to 'webkitgtk-2.4'.  So, we could now
delete both of those packages from the 'core-updates' branch.

I would advocate removing them, since these old versions of webkitgtk
are no longer maintained and contain a large number of known remote code
execution vulnerabilities.

Are there any objections to removing them?

No objections from me; please go ahead and remove them.  Thanks!
