#56508: qtXX-qtwebkit dependency on leveldb causes crashes

--------------------------+---------------------------------
 '''qtwebkit''' depends on ''leveldb'', which in turn depends on
 ''gperftools''.

 One, or both, of those dependencies seems buggy. '''Qgis3''', which links
 against ''qtwebkit'', keeps crashing in various dialogs (with messages
 like ''[src/tcmalloc.cpp]: attempt to free unknown pointer at {some
 address}'').

 Remove ''qtwebkit''’s dependency on ''leveldb'' and not only it keeps on
 building fine, but the bugs are gone. So that dependency seems to be
 toxic. Why does it exist, given that ''qtwebkit'' seems to compile fine
 without?

 Thanks
