Missing installation dependency for Linux

[pmontrasio]

This is needed to be able to run on Linux (Ubuntu 16.04)

sudo apt install gir1.2-webkit-3.0

or it will fail with

You might want to add that to the README. I also installed sudo apt install python-webkit but I'm not sure it's needed.

I needed python-gi as well, in a clean Xubuntu 16.04 VM. It still had other issues though, while open in windowed mode (icons/graphics were not displayed) so I ended up just using it from the browser.

Thanks. I have linked this issue in the readme and will report it to pywebview's maintainer.
