The custom scheme handling implementation had been inherited from the original WebKit1 implementation. It attempted to intercept navigation and resource load requests and then inject the resources. It seems that this method doesn't work in WebKit2, but fortunately, there is native support in WebKit2 for custom URI schemes through the webkit_web_context_register_uri_scheme() API. Also extend wxGtkError to allow creating it from an existing GError object as a side-effect of these changes. See https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/pull/716
