Page Info and SSL certificate viewer

Hi devs,

The SSL certificate viewer core window has finally been fully removed.

I have gone through the frontends and removed reference to it, and for the
most part that seems to have built OK, but could everyone please check their
frontends.

You will need to implement the page_info corewindow, along with supporting
the browser padlock rendering via browser_window_get_page_info_state()
triggered from the GW_EVENT_PAGE_INFO_CHANGE event sent to the event callback
in the gui_window_table. If you're not implementing this stuff then your users
are missing out on a lot of important state information which informs them
of things like the security status of the page they're on.

You can use monkey, gtk, or (soon) riscos as guides for how to do this.

D.
