Previously, a static build would produce three separate files:
QtWebKit.a, libjscore.a and libwebcore.a. These seem to have
dependencies on each other and this caused the build errors on Linux.
This change means that the sources of jscore and webcore are both built
directly into the QtWebKit.a target. libjscore.a and libwebcore.a are no
longer built. It is then possible to create a static binary on Linux.

Instead of using a C++ wrapper, I used a Node version of CoffeeScript
with a small JS wrapper (src/modules/_coffee-script.js). This way, since
the module system is similar enough to the Node.js module system, I only
need to require CoffeeScript in bootstrap.js and all the support for
.coffee is added by CoffeeScript itself.
To include a newer version of CoffeeScript in the source tree, see
tools/import-coffee-script.sh.

We are linking against e.g. libQtCore.so.4 rather than
libQtCore.so.4.8.2, and this affects symbol generation. (I am not sure
if this changed at some point, but this change should make it generate
the correct symbol files regardless.)
Also makes it less dependent on the Qt version.
This provides support for compiling the breakpad client into PhantomJS,
and generifies that Linux packaging scripts so that they also apply to
OS X and automate the symbol generation.
Building the Breakpad tool programs seems to be less than
straightforward on OS X, and documentation is poor. We have managed to
produce tools/dump-syms-mac.pro which allows building the dump_syms
program for dumping the debugging symbols. This needed a couple of
modifications to breakpad in order to compile successfully.
We have run out of time to work on making the minidump_stackwalk program
build. However, this is solely a developer tool and so it can wait until
after the 1.6 release before we complete this work.
Testing is welcome!

This addresses [Issue #409](http://code.google.com/p/phantomjs/issues/detail?id=409).
The script:
* Get the latest code. Since LineNoise is pretty small, grabbing the tarball straight from the repo should be just fine.
* Extract and place the files in the right directory (src/linenoise).
* Remove unnecessary stuff (project files etc).
* Update the src/linenoise/README.md to refer to the revision being imported.
