Disable WebKit integration (--html option)
This adds several "heavy" dependencies, notably WebKit itself, but also video and spellchecking among others, which are undesired for a simple interactive dialog. The WebKit feature is disabled by default upstream, and several major distributions (including at least the Fedora/Red Hat family, Arch and openSUSE) don't enable it in their packaging, so portable software cannot rely on this option being available. According to codesearch.debian.net, none of the packages with a dependency on zenity use the --html option. The beginning of the Debian 13 cycle seems is a good time to make this sort of potentially disruptive change; most likely nobody will notice this feature going away, but if we get bug reports, we can consider other options such as having a zenity-minimal package without HTML support, or having a zenity-full package with it. Closes: #777608, #942362
