Update for PhantomJS 2.x WIP

[JamesMGreene]

PhantomJS 2.x is currently an active work in progress in the master branch of ariya/phantomjs.

Notes:

1. 2.x is still in development (read: not 100% stable yet)
2. 2.x includes more modern versions of Qt, QtWebKit, and WebKit, as well as some changes to Phantom and the build process, so it may not be a totally trivial process to port these PhantomJS 1.x patches over to it

P.S. @r3b: Do you think all of the changes necessary to enable plugin support could be left intact within the PhantomJS core code and just toggled via a build flag (that defaults to false)? That would be phenomenal.

[r3b]

I don't see why not. In fact, I've thought about doing that but haven't
gotten around to it.

@ariya @detro @vitallium @zackw @milianw: Any tips or recommendations on integrating the plugin support (Flash, etc.) back into PhantomJS v2.x core and just controlling it on/off via a flag during the build process?

[Rui-Santos]

PhantomJS 2 was released a while ago. Any news on this?

Too many improvements are made in phantomJS 2.x. but plugin support does not provided. Please add plugin support in phantomJS 2.0 and also please try to resolve phantomjs detection holes described at http://engineering.shapesecurity.com/2015/01/detecting-phantomjs-based-visitors.html for web automation.
