So we need libunique definitely:

libunique is used so that if you start gnunet-gtk applications twice,
you still only get one window. This makes sense in combination with
'gnunet-uri', which may launch a possibly already running GUI to process
a particular URI. In this case, libunique is used to detect that the GUI
is already up, and pass the URI to the running process.

There _may_ be a more modern alternative in Gtk3 these days, but for now
we need libunique for this functionality.

see: https://gnunet.org/bugs/view.php?id=4618#c11050

Is this patch good for merging?
