unity-webapps-service & libunity-webapps0 are not really used as of now
so they should be removed and refactored in the case of libunity-webapps
along with the associated dependencies.

The libunity-webapps code that might still be somewhat relevant (for
some kind of backward compatiblity) is the gsettings related one.

Title:
  libunity-webapps0 Depends on unity-webapps-service instead of
  Recommends - move gsettings schemas to a unity-webapps-common

Bug description:
  The libunity-webapps0 package is declaring a hard Depends on unity-
  webapps-service, though the latter is not actually required by the
  library. For someone who does not need or want any webapps, it is
  feasible that they would want to uninstall this service, and not have
  it waste CPU and memory.

  A reasonable solution would be to move the necessary pieces of that
  package (the crashdb conf file for apport, and the gsettings schemas)
  to a unity-webapps-common package which the library can hard Depends
  on, and have unity-webapps-service be a Recommends instead.
