Closes #1106

Handle WebKitGTK window.open requests natively so popout windows work in the Tauri app on Linux.
Add a localized error message for cases where no popout window can be created.

I've been using this for a few months now and it works really well! Nice to see Linux support caught up with other platforms.

I noticed one minor issue though: when closing the main window while the popout is open, the popout stays open. The content does get cleared so you're left with a mostly blank window, not a huge deal but I figured I might as well mention it.

Thanks for using this modified version ! I will soon circle back to this (when I regain access to my Linux rig) as I see that the branch is out of date and will also address the issue you mentioned.

Feel free to report any issues that falls in the same scope. :)

Popouts created via on_new_window are independent Tauri windows, so closing
the main window left blank popouts open and kept the process alive.
