pkg-config variable 'codegendir' should be taken from pygobject-2.0

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The configure script computes a PYGTK_CODEGENDIR variable by reading the 
pkg-config variable 'codegendir' from the pygtk-2.0 project. The functionality 
has been moved to pygobject with a backwards-compatibility variable being kept 
in pygtk-2.0. However, the value of this variable is such that it works only if 
pygobject and pygtk are installed with the same prefix. This may be the case 
most of the time but pywebkitgtk cannot be built if they are installed in 
different places for some reason.

The solution would at least include this patch:

diff -u -d -r pywebkitgtk-1.1.7/configure.ac 
pywebkitgtk-1.1.7-patched/configure.ac
--- pywebkitgtk-1.1.7/configure.ac  2009-10-03 05:35:23.000000000 +0200

Also, renaming the PYGTK_CODEGENDIR variable accordingly might be a good idea.
