As of midori-browser#49 the user agent was hard-coded in an effort to reduce fingerprinting. Unfortunately this breaks websites such as YouTube which incorrectly sniff for features. The Midori version can remain decoupled. Fixes: midori-browser#160

To reduce user agent fingerprinting to a minimum it's probably wise to define the exact string we want regardless of the real WebKit and decoupled from release versions.
