The chrome layer contains the user interface elements (e.g.,
the panel) that disappear when fullscreen windows get displayed.
Panel menus are currently put in the chrome layer, but don't need
to be, since they are only displayed when the user is interacting
with the shell and not a fullscreen application.
Putting panel menus in the chrome layer does mean they will get
stacked below shell interface elements that aren't in the chrome layer,
though.
This commit changes panel menus to be on the same layer as most other
shell elements, so they get properly stacked above those elements.

Right now, if buttons get set on a dialog after it is mapped,
they just pop in instantly.
We shouldn't have any harsh transitions like that, though.
This commit changes the buttons to quickly fade in, instead.

All the system status menus in the panel offer a
menu item to jump to a relevant part of the
control-center.
This means each status icon has the same, or nearly the
same bit of code to:
- Add a new "action" menu item and listen for its activation.
- Hide the overview if it's showing when the menu item is activated
- Find the relevant control-center panel from its desktop file
- Launch the control-center to the relevant panel
This commit consolidates all those details in a new method,
addSettingsAction. This refactoring reduces code duplication and
slight inconsistencies in the code resulting from that duplication.
It will also make it easier in subsequent commits to hide settings menu
items when the shell is used in the login screen.

A separator only makes sense if there are items on both
sides of it. There is quite a lot of code written
throughout the shell that manages the process of showing
and hiding separators as the items around those separators
change.
This commit drops all that code in favor of changes to the menu
implementation to dynamically hide or show separators as
appropriate, so the callers don't have to deal with it.

Wireless and 3g dialog code has moved to gnome-control-center, so
we can stop calling out to nm-applet. Also, we can now enable the
notifications provided by the shell and kill a bit of code about
auth that is not actually needed.

Using the new ShellNetworkAgent, show a system modal dialog
(similar to the PolicyKit one) when NetworkManager needs secrets
for connecting to wireless.

The order of indicators depends on the order of calls to
Panel.addToStatusArea. To have it consistent across enabling and
disabling of extensions, we need to place the core ones first.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=653205
This way all standard indicators have a shell implementation
provided, which prevents issues with extensions enabling/disabling
(in particular with xrandr-indicator)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=653205
Extensions often want to add items to the system status area, so it
is useful to add a convenience API for it. Also, we now allow
for cleaner destruction of panel objects, by just calling destroy()
on it.
Based on a patch by Jasper St. Pierre.

The "id" variable was being sporadically reset to null, and as far as
Florian and I could determine, this is actually a Spidermonkey bug.
The issue has something to do with:
1) use of "let" for the variable
2) Nesting a dynamic closure inside of a for() loop
Work around it here for now - I tried to create a minimized test case
to hand to the Spidermonkey developers, but failed. A big part of
the problem is it's only sporadically reproducible.
Direction containers group all contiguous messages in the same direction into
their own parent container, allowing for smarter styling of similar messages.

This adds a new DBus method: InstallExtensionRemote(uuid : s, url : s)
Pass it the UUID of an extension and the URL of a manifest file: the same as a
metadata.json, but with a special key, '__installer', which is an HTTP location
that points to an zip file containing the extension. The Shell will download
and use it to install the extension. In the future, the manifest file may be
used to automatically detect and install updates.

The two similar keys were hard to manipulate to have specific effects, so just
remove one. Now there is an *explicit* whitelist: all extensions must be in the
'enabled-extensions' for them to be loaded.

It's generally more useful to see when a person sent a message instead of when
we received it. Also, a recent change in Telepathy made the received timestamp
be 0 for messages we send.

Adds methods to shell_global to allow taking screenshots
save the result into a specified png image.
It exposes three methods via shellDBus applications like
gnome-screenshot:
*) Screenshot (screenshots the whole screen)
*) ScreenshotWindow (screenshots the focused window)
*) ScreenshotArea (screenshots a specific area)

It is not possible to connect to hidden access points without
knowing the SSID, and it should be done using the control center
panel and the appropriate dialog. At the same time, this should
fix some warnings from libnm-glib and dbus-glib.

The shell should only notify in case no other client handles the message.
Empathy will ack the message if focused, so we don't want to step on its
toes.
Use the existing setting
org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.office.calendar.exec
as calendar application instead of the hard-coded evolution. Evolution
is still the fallback if that setting is cleared (it defaults to
evolution).

Since almost all of the callers of shell_app_activate were using the
default workspace (by passing -1), remove that parameter.
Add a new shell_app_activate_full() API which takes a workspace as
well as a timestamp; previously we might have been ignoring event
timestamps from elsewhere.

This dramatically thins down and sanitizes the application code.
The ShellAppSystem changes in a number of ways:
* Preferences are special cased more explicitly; they aren't apps,
they're shortcuts for an app), and we don't have many of them, so
don't need e.g. the optimizations in ShellAppSystem for searching.
* get_app() changes to lookup_app() and returns null if an app isn't
found. The semantics where it tried to find the .desktop file
if we didn't know about it were just broken; I am pretty sure no
caller needs this, and if they do we'll fix them.
* ShellAppSystem maintains two indexes on apps (by desktop file id
and by GMenuTreeEntry), but is no longer in the business of
dealing with GMenuTree as far as hierarchy and categories go. That
is moved up into js/ui/appDisplay.js. Actually, it flattens both
apps and settings.
Also, ShellWindowTracker is now the sole reference-owner for
window-backed apps. We still do the weird "window:0x1234beef" id
for these apps, but a reference is not stored in ShellAppSystem.
The js/ui/appDisplay.js code is rewritten, and sucks a lot less.
Variable names are clearer:
_apps -> _appIcons
_filterApp -> _visibleApps
_filters -> _categoryBox
Similarly for function names. We no longer call (for every app) a
recursive lookup in GMenuTree to see if it's in a particular section
on every category switch; it's all cached.
NOTE - this intentionally reverts the incremental loading code from
commit 7813c5b93f. It's fast enough
here without that.

Add a helper function (mostly copied from gtkcalendar.c) for getting
the first week day for the current locale, using nl_langinfo if
available and falling back to the GTK+ gettext fallback otherwise.
Use that function in the calendar, so that the LC_TIME setting is
used if possible.

Instead, create three ripples and keep tweening them. This gives a dramatic
speedup when entering the overview, but means that we can't have the same animation
running twice. In this case, we "reset" the currently running ripple animation, but
it is hard to notice unless looking for it.

Extension developers may be confused about why their extensions aren't working:
the LookingGlass isn't a very obvious place, or even which errors are theirs.
To remedy this, save all errors per-UUID which allows them to be retrieved
later.

Add ShellVersion, designed for detecting OUT_OF_DATE extensions so they can't
be installed, as well as ApiVersion, designed for backwards-compatibility with
the SweetTooth web-app, which must support all shell versions.

GetExtensionInfo() takes a UUID and returns a JSON object with information
about that extension including their metadata, path and current state.
ListExtensions() takes no arguments and returns a JSON object mapping UUIDs
to the same information objects described above.
