The setting to globally disable location settings altogether isn't
handled by the geoclue service itself, but by the authorization
agent. This means that:
- it doesn't apply to system components
(which gnome-shell is now considered[0])
- it doesn't apply once the geoclue connection
has been authorized
However users can reasonably expect that we won't use location services
after they disabled them, so handle the setting explicitly.

We currently use automatic location for weather forecasts if the
corresponding Weather setting is set, however we should take other
factors into account as well:
- whether location services are enabled at all
- whether Weather has been authorized to use them
In preparation of these changes, track the setting's value in a
separate property and make _useAutoLocation a getter, so we can
extend it with additional conditions easily.

Setting GWeatherInfo:location to null helpfully doesn't mean
"no location", but "NYC". This obviously isn't what we want
to show users, so track the location validity separately and
consider it when updating the label shown to users.

When using the 'disable-lock-screen' setting to lock down the screen
lock, the expectation is that users cannot lock the screen. However
as it turns out, all the setting currently does is hiding the lock
button in the system menu and making the lock settings in the privacy
panel inactive. That means that if the 'lock-screen-enabled' setting
isn't disabled and locked down as well, we will just continue to
lock the screen on inactivity - not to mention the keyboard shortcut
that isn't subject to that setting anyway.
Instead of expecting administrators to hunt down every possible way
of locking the screen and disabling it individually, we can easily
handle all cases by refusing to lock the screen when disabled by the
lockdown settings.

Dragging and dropping app icons is expected to work anywhere over a
workspace, however overlaid elements are added to a separate hierarchy
and can thus block valid drop targets. This wasn't much of an issue
while we had just the window title, but since the addition of the
focus border, drops on window previews stopped working entirely.
Fix this by hiding all non-reactive overlay elements from picks.

We rely on the service to detect whether a fingerprint reader is
present. It is fine to not support fingerprint authentication
when the service is missing, but currently we don't handle this
case at all and end up with a non-functional login screen.

Currently when the wifi selection dialog is open when the screen lock is
activated, the dialog remains visible above the shield. This is clearly
broken, so close the dialog automatically on session mode changes if the
mode doesn't allow settings (as changing the access point is arguably a
user setting).

The critical hint is meant to be used for notifications that must not
be missed - running out of battery being the prime example - so it
makes sense to ignore the policy in that case and make sure to always
show them to the user. This is consistent with blocking normal
notifications while showing a fullscreen window, but letting critical
ones through.

Whenever there's more than one pad in the same group (eg. Wacom ExpressKey
Remotes), show a popdown menu to allow configuring those extra pads.
Devices are hot-pluggable, so the popdown menu will update its state
whenever pads are added/removed.
Also, allow to quickly change between pads by switching to its OSD by
just interacting with them. Always given they are in the same group.

Telepathy's role has been diminishing continuously over the last
couple of years, so while chat integration is a nice feature for
those who use it, it is hard to justify keeping it as a hard
dependency. To address this, split out the component from the
client so we can handle missing typelibs gracefully by not
providing any chat integration.

If GeoClue is not responding for some reason, the callback of
Geoclue.Simple.new would not get called, meaning that _gclueFailed
remains false. This is preventing the fallback to the most recently
used location in gnome-weather, because it requires _gclueFailed to be
true (or auto-location to be disabled). So neither code path sets a
location and the libgweather default (New York City) is being used
instead.

For most notifications, banners are suppressed while the monitor
that is used to display banners is in fullscreen. With the old
message tray at the bottom, this used to be the bottom-most monitor,
but nowadays it's always the primary one, so update the corresponding
code to use the correct monitor.

The built-in telepathy integration is far less prominent than it
used to be, and doesn't really justify a link time dependency to
send debug message over D-Bus.

We are still using DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING from dbus-glib
in some places (whose headers are drawn in via telepathy-glib).
As both GIO and dbus-glib use the values that will end up being
sent on the bus, the define and enum value are interchangeable,
but it's clearly better to consistently use the library that is
explicitly included.

The telepathy integration was written at a time where gjs didn't
allow to inherit from GObject classes, which is why we needed a
C helper class. This hasn't been the case for a while now, so cut
out the middle man and implement Tp.BaseClient directly.
