qt-webkit-kiosk: new package

Qt-webkit-kiosk is a simple browser working in kiosk-mode, powered by
Qt & Webkit. It provides a convenient way to deploy a full-screen
browser on embedded system platforms.

This commit adds the appropriate packaging to Buildroot, including
options to parametrize the deployment of the optional sound files and
the customization of the browser configuration file.

Thanks for this contribution. This definitely looks like a useful
package to have in Buildroot! See below for some comments.

Please put the dependencies after the "bool" statement. Also, I would
prefer something like:

	depends on BR2_PACKAGE_QT5
	select BR2_PACKAGE_QT5WEBKIT
	select BR2_PACKAGE_QT5MULTIMEDIA
	depends on !BR2_STATIC_LIBS # qt5webkit
	depends on BR2_PACKAGE_QT5_JSCORE_AVAILABLE # qt5webkit
	depends on BR2_ARCH_HAS_ATOMICS # qt5webkit
	depends on !BR2_BINFMT_FLAT # qt5webkit

This way, your package becomes visible as soon as Qt5 is enabled,
without requiring the user to know which particular Qt5 modules have to
be enabled.

Line seems too long. Also, use "and" instead of "&".

I don't think we want to have an option for this. Just install the
default configuration file unconditionally. People who want to override
it should do so in their rootfs overlay or in a post-build script.

Missing comment header. See all other packages in Buildroot. Yes, I
know it's a silly rule, but most rules are silly, no? :-)

Please replace this by something that always installs the default
configuration file.

Please put all the install related logic right before the
<pkg>_INSTALL_CMDS variable.

Please use $(QT5_QMAKE) instead of calling qmake directly.

You can use install_target instead, no?

Something like:

	$(TARGET_MAKE_ENV) $(MAKE) -C $(@D) \
		INSTALL_ROOT=$(TARGET_DIR) \
		install_target \
		install_config \
		$(if $(BR2_PACKAGE_QT_WEBKIT_KIOSK_SOUNDS),install_sound)

Could you take into account those comments, and send an updated version?

Thanks!
