Manifest to run git-webkit, when contributing patches to Webkit

[Maxim Cournoyer]

Hello,

Having spent some time trying to use their 'git-webkit' script to submit
guix-related work, I thought I'd share what worked:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
~/src/WebKit$ guix shell -m git-webkit-manifest.scm --
Tools/Scripts/git-webkit setup
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Then

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix shell -m git-webkit-manifest.scm -- Tools/Scripts/git-webkit pull-request
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Where git-webkit-manifest.scm contains:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setenv "DISABLE_WEBKITCOREPY_AUTOINSTALLER" "1")

(packages->manifest
 (map specification->package
      (list
       "python"
       "python-certifi"
       "python-mock"
       "python-chardet"
       "python-dateutil"
       "python-entrypoints"
       "python-idna"
       "python-packaging"
       "python-pyparsing"
       "python-requests"
       "python-setuptools-scm"
       "python-socks"
       "python-six"
       "python-tblib"
       "python-urllib3"
       "python-wheel"
       "python-whichcraft"
       "python-xmltodict"
       "python-jeepney"
       "python-cffi"
       "python-cryptography"
       "python-secretstorage"
       "python-keyring")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Their contribution process is documented at
https://webkit.org/contributing-code/#setting-up-a-checkout.

I hope that helps someone else (or myself in the future).
