Title:
  Freecad's start workbench points to missing webgui -> almost empty gui

Status in freecad package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in freecad source package in Bionic:
  Confirmed
Status in freecad package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Using freecad 0.16.6712+dfsg1-1ubuntu2 from Ubuntu 18.04, the Start
  Workbench is broken due to a missing Qt4 dependency of WebGui.

   * Backporting the proposed fix will prvent FreeCAD from building the
  affected Workbench as well as changing the default to the Part
  Workbench.

   * The proposed upload will fix the issue by setting the default
  workbench to "PartWorkbench" in src/Main/MainGui.cpp. Additionally,
  the pacakage rules file is modified to prevent the Start Workbench
  from being built.

  [Test Case]

   * On Ubuntu 18.04, install freecad and run normally.
   
   * An empty Start Workbench is loaded. The message "No module named WebGui" is logged in the report view.

  [Regression Potential]

   * All functionality provided by the Start Workbench will be
  unavailable.
