[Bug]: Switch from webkit2gtk 4.0 to 4.1

[jbicha]

Detailed steps on how to reproduce the bug

webkitgtk introduced the 4.1 API more than a year ago. It is the same as the 4.0 API but uses libsoup3 instead of libsoup2.4. Since JUCE doesn't use libsoup directly, it is an easy swap to switch to the 4.1 API. Every stable Linux distribution with a supported version of webkitgtk already provides the 4.1 packages.

More importantly, Linux distributions have begun removing the 4.0 packages. This is true for Debian Unstable, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, and probably Fedora 41 (to be released later this year).

What is the expected behaviour?

A command like this can do the switch:

find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i '' -e 's/webkit2gtk-4.0/webkit2gtk-4.1/g'
