Porting FBReader to Meego 1.2 Harmattan

Andrew Olmsted built the first FBReader packages for Harmattan, after tweaking the build system a bit. The desktop version of FBReader already used Qt 4, and ran almost unmodified, but with some bugs (segfault on task switch) and ugly UI. I started with the Ubuntu packages for FBReader, since they used a more sane build system for .debs (compared to upstream's funky shell script). Some tweaks were needed to make it build in Scratchbox: since GTK+ and Hildon libraries aren't available on Harmattan, I had to disable the building of -gtk and -maemo versions of libzlui.
