a88e59c1a8 Adopt EventEmitter class instead of injecting Signal methods
Introduce a new class, EventEmitter, which implements signal
handling for pure JavaScript classes. EventEmitter still
utilizes GJS' addSignalMethods internally.

EventEmitter allows static typechecking to understand the
structure of event-emitting JS classes and makes creating
child classes simpler.

The name 'EventEmitter' mirrors a common name for this pattern
in Node and in JS libraries.

2b45a01517 cleanup: Use new indentation style for object literals
We have made good progress on object literals as well, although there
are still a lot that use the old style, given how ubiquitous object
literals are.

But the needed reindentation isn't overly intrusive, as changes are
limited to the object literals themselves (i.e. they don't affect
surrounding code).

And given that object literals account for quite a bit of the remaining
differences between regular and legacy rules, doing the transition now
is still worthwhile.

809f820cd4 gdm: Refactor oVirt to a generic CredentialManager interface
Commit 4cda61a1 added support for pre-authenticated logins in
    oVirt environments. This feature prevents a user from having
    to type their password twice (once to the oVirt management machine,
    and then immediately again in the provisioned guest running gnome-shell).
    That feature is currently oVirt specific, but a similar feature would
    be useful in non-oVirt based virt farm environments.

    Toward that end, this commit generalizes the various aspects of the
    oVirt integration code, so that it can be reused in a subsequent
    commit for adding single sign on support in vmware deployments, too.

e44adb92cf cleanup: Avoid unnecessary parentheses
Extra parentheses usually add noise rather than clarity, so avoid
them.

e357559582 cleanup: Mark globals used from other modules as exported
eslint cannot figure out that those symbols are used from other modules
via imports, so they trigger unused-variable errors. To fix, explicitly
mark those symbols as exported.

bacfdbbb03 cleanup: Port non-GObject classes to JS6 classes
ES6 finally adds standard class syntax to the language, so we can
replace our custom Lang.Class framework with the new syntax. Any
classes that inherit from GObject will need special treatment,
so limit the port to regular javascript classes for now.

3b1330880f cleanup: Use Function.prototype.bind()
When not using arrow notation with anonymous functions, we use Lang.bind()
to bind `this` to named callbacks. However since ES5, this functionality
is already provided by Function.prototype.bind() - in fact, Lang.bind()
itself uses it when no extra arguments are specified. Just use the built-in
function directly where possible, and use arrow notation in the few places
where we pass additional arguments.

76f09b1e49 cleanup: Use method syntax
Modern javascript has a short-hand for function properties, embrace
it for better readability and to prepare for an eventual port to
ES6 classes.

2582d16ca7 Define classes with 'var' instead of 'const'
Any symbols (including class properties) that should be visible
outside the module it's defined in need to be defined as global.
For now gjs still allows the access for 'const', but get rid of
the warnings spill now by changing it.

4cda61a16a gdm: support pre-authenticated logins from oVirt
oVirt is software for managing medium-to-large scale deployments of
virtual machine guests across multiple hosts. It supports a feature
where users can authenticate with a central server and get
transparently connected to a guest system and then automatically get logged
into that guest to an associated user session.

Guests using old versions of GDM support this single-sign-on capability
by means of a greeter plugin, using the old greeter's extension
API.

This commit adds similar support to the gnome-shell based login screen.

How it works:

* The OVirtCredentialsManager singleton listens for

  'org.ovirt.vdsm.Credentials.UserAuthenticated'

  D-Bus signal on the system bus from the

  'org.ovirt.vdsm.Credentials'

  bus name. The service that provides that bus name is called
  the oVirt guest agent. It is also responsible for interacting
  with the the central server to get user credentials.

* This UserAuthenticated signal passes, as a parameter, the a token
  which needs to be passed through to the PAM service that is specifically
  set up to integrate with the oVirt authentication architecture.
  The singleton object keeps the token internally so it can be queried
  later on.

* The OVirtCredentialsManager emits a signal 'user-authenticated' on
  it's object once the dbus signal is triggered

* When the 'user-authenticated' signal is emitted, the login screen
  tells GDM to start user verification using the PAM service. The
  authentication stack of the service includes a PAM module
  provided by oVirt that securely retrieves user credentials
  from the oVirt guest agent. The PAM module then forwards those
  credentials on to other modules in the stack so, e.g.,
  the user's gnome keyring can be automatically unlocked.

* In case of the screen shield being visible, it also will react on that
  'user-authenticated' signal and lift the shield.
  In that case the login screen will check on construction time if
  the signal has already been triggered, and a token is available.
  If a token is available it will immediately trigger the functionality
  as described above.
