Unfortunately, gjs cannot handle binary C strings directly from
gobject-introspection. Add a simple workaround method in C to help
us save random files from the web.

shell_util_get_file_display_name_if_mount() uses a nautilus setting
to use a name for $HOME which is consistent with the file manager.
But while nautilus was ported to GSettings a while ago, we are still
trying to access the old GConf setting.

shell-global had become a dumping ground for functions that didn't
have anywhere else to be. Make shell-util the dumping ground instead,
and have shell-global only have methods that involve the ShellGlobal
object.

Add a function that gets the current allocation of an actor
transformed into stage coordinates. This avoids a misfeature of
clutter_actor_get_transformed_size() where when a size request is
queued (even if it won't eventually change the size), the returned
value is the transformed size request rather than the last allocation.

Monkey-patch Date.prototype.toLocaleFormat() with a version that uses
g_date_time_format() since the Spidermonkey built-in can't handle
format strings with Unicode characters.

At times it is desireable to hide actors from being picked even
with a mode of CLUTTER_PICK_ALL.
Currently we use a pattern of
clutter_actor_hide();
clutter_stage_get_actor_at_pos();
clutter_actor_show();
in these cases, which gets hideous if the actor we want to exclude
from the pick is located in another module.
A more elegant solution is to connect a handler to the ::pick signal,
which stops further emission.
Credit for the idea goes to Owen Taylor.

Add a "gicon" property so that a GIcon can be used instead of an
icon name, while still getting icon recoloring from the theme.
Also include a compatibility wrapper in libshell until GJS has
support for interface static methods.
