If the initialization fails for some reason, for example by
running 'gnome-shell --replace', we should not crash because
of an attempt of unregistering an unregistered agent handle.
Fix that by checking if the handle is not NULL before calling
the unregistering routines.

The polkit agent does not take ownership of the request's cancellable,
so it may no longer be valid after the request finished and we need
to disconnect it before that. Before the GTask port in 8b4249ef2,
it was safe to do that when freeing the request data because requests
completed in an idle, but now we need to do it before returning the
task result.

Components are pieces of the shell code that can be added/removed
at runtime, like extension, but are tied more directly to a session
mode. The session polkit agent, the network agent, autorun/automount,
are all components, keyring, recorder and telepathy client are all
now copmonents.

When using systemd, polkit doesn't set the error even when returning false in g_initable_init

This allows PolicyKit applications to disambiguate between when the
authentication dialog is dismissed versus when authentication fails
(e.g. the wrong password has been entered).
See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30653 for more
information.

A PolicyKit Authentication Agent is a construct used to authenticate
one or more identities. See the PolicyKit documentation for more
details on authentication agents and how PolicyKit works:
http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/polkit/
Since gjs does not support subclassing a GObject class from Javascript
code, we bring in a native class to bridge the VFuncs to GObject
signals. Additionally, this native class also queues up authentication
requests so the user of the native class only has to deal with a
single outstanding request at any one time.
The file js/ui/polkitAuthenticationAgent.js introduces a singleton
that listens for authentication requests via the native class. This
singleton uses the PolkitAgent machinery to do the actual heavy-weight
lifting required for authentication (essentially a PAM conversation).
We currently don't allow the user to pick the identity to be
authenticated.
