Clean up the "rekonq handling chain" to work as:

1. preHandling: about, javascript, abp protocols. Stops if protocol is NOT known
2. WebKit handling: Allow WebKit to try doing its job
3. postHandling / unsupported content handling: try what is possible to let users see it :)

This also prevents some possible infinite loop on opening...
