Allows to embed a custom widget in print dialog.

A WebKitPrintCustomWidget allows to embed a custom widget in the print dialog by connecting to the create_custom_widget signal, creating a new WebKitPrintCustomWidget with PrintCustomWidget and returning it from there. You can later use run_dialog to display the dialog.

Unfortunately, use of custom widgets is incompatible with modern containerized application frameworks like Flatpak. A print dialog constructed in the application process will not have access to host printers, so instead it must be constructed by a desktop portal service running on the host system. Because this print dialog runs in a separate process, it's not possible to attach a custom widget.
