xwidgets support #33

Hi,

Thanks for your work, but with emacs 28 xwidgets support is not part of the compilation.
Can you release one with that included?
I need it with mu4e-views for reading HTML email correctly in mu4e. Rgds, Michaël C.

Apologies for the delay in responding to this issue - the problem with webkit is that it doesn't support the different /snap/ prefix which the emacs snap uses - as such, if we build with webkit/xwidgets support then emacs tries to use the webkit library from the host filesystem which will likely be a different version and then emacs crashes due to the different ABI. Please see the existing issue https://github.com/alexmurray/emacs-snap/issues/21 which captures this.
