The webkitgtk4-devel package already provides pkgconfig(webkit2gtk-4.0).

The GNOME system for naming pkg-config files is
<name>-<major-ver-series>, so it's clearer with the pkgconfig name
than the package name.

The naming of the packages was especially dumb in Fedora. It might
make sense to add some Provides that add sensible names, too.
