Title:
  Remove Oxide, webbrowser-app and the Unity webapps

Status in libunity-webapps package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in oxide-qt package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  These projects are discontinued, unsupported and should be removed.

  I haven't done any analysis of the deps or rdeps to find out if there
  is more to cull, or if there is some untangling to do.

  I know of two tasks other than removing packages -

   Unity ships an Amazon launcher in its preset favourites which
  launches a binary from unity-webapps-service. That should be removed.

   We need to keep providing the Amazon launcher by default (in GNOME
  Shell) - it should be reimplemented and added to Shell by default.
