The workspace minimap is much less prominent than the old workspace
switcher, and serves primarily as an indicator.
That means that duplicating it on secondary monitors (if workspaces
on non-primaries are enabled) is harder to mistake for per-monitor
workspaces, so make some people happy by including the minimap on
every monitor.

Now that the backgrounds was moved into workspaces, the fullscreen
views on secondary monitors are visually inconsistent with the
primary view, as there's no dash or search entry that reduces the
available height and allows adjacent workspaces to peek in.
Address this by adding padding above and below the view, so that
it is limited to 70% of the available height.

Right now the handling of external monitors is relatively simple, and
consists of putting either an extra workspace or a full view on the
monitor, depending on the workspaces-only-on-primary setting.
We are about to tweak the behavior on secondary monitors, prepare for
that by splitting out an intermediate actor that manages the views on
non-primaries.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1735>
At the moment views on non-primary monitors take up the entire work area,
so simply allocating the available size works. However we'll soon shrink
the views a bit to match the visuals on the primary monitor. As workspaces
keep the ratio, reducing their height will also reduce the width; override
the default allocate() to keep the extra workspace horizontally centered.

At the moment, we only get the initial :should-show value when populating
the thumbnails. That only happens when entering the overview, so any
listeners to notify::should-show will perceive it as a change rather
than an initialization, which can result in unwanted transitions.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1735>
We currently initialize the porthole to the screen size instead of
the monitor's work area we actually want. At the moment this doesn't
matter, as the minimap is created during initialization with the rest
of the overview, so we can expect a work area change that updates the
porthole to the correct values.
That won't be true for minimaps we put on secondary monitors, so make
sure we initialize the porthole to the actual values.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1735>
The minimap is currently created once when populating the overview,
and kept around until the end of the session. That will change when
we start to also show it on secondary monitors, so do proper clean
up when destroyed.

This is used to detect whether a click was short enough to select a
window and activate it or long enough to start a drag. Usually when
clicking on a window and selecting it, this leaves the overview, but
when clicking on a window on a neighboring workspace, the overview is
kept open, but selected is not unset in this case. So all attempts at
dragging the window after using it to switch workspaces will fail.

The property describes the target visibility (that is, the visibility
that will be set after the ongoing transition), and is therefore updated
at the start of the transition rather than from hideDone().
The overview gesture currently misses resetting it at the end, so it
is only updated to the correct state the next time the overview is
entered.

When adapting the check to the new versioning check, we just blindly
copied the old behavior for stable/unstable versions:
- stable releases must have matching major numbers
- unstable releases must match major and minor ("alpha", "beta", "rc")
That worked for the old even/odd scheme, but now has the absurd effect
that we consider an extension that lists "40.alpha" in its shell-version
incompatible with "40.beta", but compatible with "40.2".
At least this provides us with a good opportunity to reconsider the
behavior. While it is true that breakage is much more likely between
unstable releases, in practice extensions are either following shell
development closely or update once around the time of a stable release.
For the former, the stricter check isn't usually too useful (as the
extension releases around the same time as gnome-shell anyway).
For the latter, it's annoying that ".rc" is treated differently from
".0" and requires an update to become compatible.
The latter is also by far the more common case, so update the check
to only match on the major version regardless of whether a release
is stable or unstable.

Since commit 9980c80619, the porthole position is ignored. As a result,
previews are only shown if the primary monitor is located at (0, 0).
To fix this, we either need to propagate the porthole to every thumbnail,
use a custom layout manager that applies an offset to all children, or
add an intermediate actor that offsets the contents.
The last option is the simplest and doesn't require calls into JS on
every allocation, so pick that one.

The preview was getting scaled up by a factor based on what is needed to
increase the width by activeExtraSize pixels. With windows that are
wider than than they are tall, this means that the size of the window
will not increase any more than activeExtraSize in any direction, but
for windows that are taller than they are wide, the vertical scaling
can exceed this. This would break some of the assumptions in the
reported size for the preview chrome and could for very narrow windows
result in a rather large scale.
To fix this, calculate the scaling factor based on whatever is larger,
the height or the width.

Since commit 0f1b566918, we use gjs' automatic getters/setters for
the shader properties. Those handle the properties on the JS and
GObject side, but they don't update the corresponding uniform,
whoops.

In the allocate() vfunc of WorkspaceLayout we use a small trick to make
the nonlinear animation paths when opening the overview less jarring:
Because a window might get smaller than its target size during the
animation, we make sure the size never drops below the final size
calculated by the layout strategy.
In the app grid the Workspace is very small though, and the size of a
window slot calculated by the layout strategy might actually be larger
than the workspaceBox. This means we might use the window slot size
instead of the workspaceBox size and end up with a window that's at the
correct position, but its size is too large.
Fix this by only applying this trick when we're animating towards or
from the state where we actually expect the workspaceBox to be larger
than the window slot, that is during the the transition from the session
to the window picker (or the other way round).

It should be allowed to set this._spacing to 0 and thus pass 0 as
rowSpacing or colSpacing to this._adjustSpacingAndPadding(). The current
if-condition there won't add the oversize to the spacing in case 0 is
passed though.
So change that if-condition and explicitely check for null instead.

Window previews can spill out of the container when their position in the
session overflows the monitor boundaries. In the past, Workspace didn't have
a visible background, and was (almost) always fullscreen, which would mask
this particular problem. However, nowadays, it is very much noticeable when
this situation happens.
Clip the window previews container to its allocation when the overview state
is bigger than WINDOW_PICKER. That is, between HIDDEN and WINDOW_PICKER states,
inclusive, no clipping is applied.

Instead of adding it to the window previews container, add it to Workspace
itself. This requires expanding WorkspaceBackground, so add the relevant
x and y expand flags.
Since the background is beneath the window previews, create and add it before
the window preview container.

Currently, Workspace is a single actor that contains both the background,
and all window previews, and is managed by WorkspaceLayout. In the future,
this concentrating aspect of it will bite us; we want the window previews
to be clipped to the allocation, but not the background, since it will
have shadows.
Make Workspace subclass St.Widget with a ClutterBinLayout as layout manager,
and move window previews to a child actor. To reduce the impact of this
extra actor, it's a ClutterActor instead of a StWidget, and the spacing is
still set on Workspace itself.

The WorkspaceBackground class has specific code to clip the background
to the workarea. However, it doesn't monitor for workarea changes, which
means it cannot react after being created.
Connect to 'workareas-changed', and update the workarea, the radius bounds,
and relayout when workareas change.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1691>
The primary workspace is displayed in the overview, and clipping it
ends up clipping the shadows too. Since Overview's ControlsManager
itself clips to allocation, no windows in the primary monitor spill
to other monitors. However, not clipping non-primary monitors might
end up in situations where their windows spill into the primary one.
Make sure to only clip workspace views of non-primary monitors.

The dialog is shown at session start, which right now means in the
regular session, however the plan is to start the session in the
overview. When that happens, the "Take the Tour" button should get
the user to the Tour without additonal actions.

Right now the rowSpacing and columSpacing of the layout strategy is
calculated by looking at the overlapping sizes of the close button and
the app icon of the WindowPreview, plus a constant spacing read from CSS
by the WorkspaceLayout that's added to that. We're not factoring in the
extra size of the scaled-up WindowPreviews here and instead depend on
the constant spacing being large enough. If we don't want to depend on
the spacing here, we should add the scaled-up extra size to the sizes
returned by chromeWidths() and chromeHeights().
Since the last commits all previews scale up by the same amount of
pixels, so we can now just add that size to the values returned by
chromeWidths() and chromeHeights().
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1692>
Scaling differently sized WindowPreviews by a constant factor will
result in smaller windows getting enlarged by a smaller amount of pixels
than larger windows (1000*1.02=1020 but 100*1.02=102, one will grow by
20 pixels and the other one by 2), this can look a bit weird because
smaller windows don't scale up as much as larger windows.
So introduce a constant extra size to use when scaling windows up, we
set only the half size there because we want to ensure that the size
added on both sides is not fractional and we remain aligned to the pixel
grid.

Right now the spacing between icon and title works using a little trick
that doesn't really seem intended: The title is offset by
(icon-height * ICON_OVERLAP), when the icon is actually overlapping the
preview by ICON_OVERLAP, and *overflowing* the preview by
(1 - ICON_OVERLAP).
So correct that and offset the title by
(icon-height * (1 - ICON_OVERLAP)), and since now there's no spacing
anymore, add a proper ICON_TITLE_SPACING to that offset.
Also add the new ICON_TITLE_SPACING to the overlapHeight, where the
spacing was ignored so far.

The scale property tracks the relative size at which we display thumbnails
given the space we have available.
That assumes that the allocation represents that available space, but it will
actually be smaller while the minimap itself is collapsing.
Luckily we have an easy option to avoid a distorted scale: Just don't update
it while collapsing. We expect scale changes when adding or removing thumbnails,
but as we freeze those during transitions, we can do the same with the scale.

Right now the minimap only hides itself in case of a single static
workspace. That's not only an edge case, but also not expected to
change while the overview is visible, so changing the visibility
without a transition is fine.
However that is about to change, and we'll hide the minimap as well
when there are fewer than three workspaces. As that condition is
very much expected to change from within the overview, the transition
should be animated.
Implement that via a new :collapse-fraction property on ThumbnailsBox,
and use that to transition both the height of the box itself and the
scale of the individual thumbnails.

We currently have two components that show or hide the minimap:
- the thumbnails hide themselves in case of a single static workspace
- overview controls show the minimap when no search is active
That obviously doesn't work correctly.
To fix this, change thumbnails to set a new :should-show property instead
of the visibility, and let the overview controls take it into account
when changing the visibility.

As planned and shown in the mockups for GNOME 40, round the corners of
the background wallpaper of workspaces.
To do that we use the new rounded-clipping support of
MetaBackgroundContent and we animate the radius by attaching it to the
stateAdjustment just like everything else.
Because we show only a part of the wallpaper and "cut away" the area of
the panel in WorkspaceBackgrounds vfunc_allocate(), we also need to set
the rounded clips bounding rect to the rectangle we're actually showing,
otherwise the texture would be rounded in the region that's cut away.
