4dc2039859 messageTray: Disable unredirection while showing banners
We don't usually show notification banners while the monitor is in
fullscreen, but when we do - the notification is urgent - we should
actually show the banner, even if the top-most window is unredirected.
To achieve that, disable unredirection while the banner is showing.

1acdff822a iconGrid: Keep icons reactive during pulse animation
The `reactive` property of icon actors was being restored multiple times
over the course of the pulse animation, all at slightly different times
as each icon finished animating at different times.

The problem is that toggling `reactive` on an `StWidget` incurs a style
change of the `insensitive` pseudo class, and style changes would quickly
queue relayouts incurring full stage reallocation. This occurred many times
during a pulse animation, limiting its smoothness and performance.

The solution is to not toggle the `reactive` property in the pulse
animation at all, which avoids incurring multiple full stage relayouts.

As a bonus, this means the icon under the cursor pulses with the correct
selection highlight, appearing more seamless and responsive.

a5e6dd52d2 iconGrid: Defer and group animation cleanup
The `reactive` property of icon actors was being restored 24 times over
the course of the spring animation, all at slightly different times as
each icon finished animating at different times.

The problem is that toggling `reactive` on an `StWidget` incurs a style
change of the `insensitive` pseudo class, and style changes would quickly
queue relayouts incurring full stage reallocation. This occurred many times
during a spring animation hogging the CPU and limiting the frame rate.

The solution is defer and batch the cleanup for all icons until after the
last icon has finished animating. This way the CPU impact of the style
change and stage relayout isn't felt during the animation so the frame
rate remains higher and smoother. The overall CPU usage of the animation
is also reduced as the remaining relayouts are much more likely to be
grouped into a single frame.

Icon spring animation performance on an i7-7700:
Before: 83% CPU and 47 FPS
After : 78% CPU and 54 FPS
which is about a 22% increase in performance per clock (FPS/CPU).

switcherPopup: Bind to the stage, not the monitor
The switcher popup is a large, mostly transparent actor that
should cover all the clickable area of GNOME Shell. In Clutter
terms, it should cover the whole stage.

By binding it to the primary monitor, the Alt+Tab behavior
becomes a bit inconsistent. For example, by not hiding when
clicking at empty spaces at other monitors.

Fix that by binding the SwitcherPopup to the whole stage,
and not only the primary monitor.

Since we started to show OSD windows on all monitors, OSD windows are

keyboard: Stop using Shell.GenericContainer
This is the last remaining usage of Shell.GenericContainer
in the codebase, and posed small challenges compared to the
other removals.

A new St.Widget subclass called InputSourceIndicatorContainer
was added as a replacement to the Shell.GenericContainer. It
was needed because GNOME Shell needs to override the regular
size allocation functions, but InputSourceIndicator already
is a St.Widget with its own size allocation overrides.

Pretty much like dd4709bb2, BoxPointer's show() and hide()
functions will clash with Clutter.Actor's ones.

In addition to that, on a conceptual level, the current API
is not great, because calling boxPointer.hide() won't result
in boxPointer.actor.visible == false.

For these reasons, rename show() and hide() to open() and
close(). A compatibility layer will be added in a following
commit, warning about the usage of show() and hide().

iconGrid: Stop using Shell.GenericContainer
Removing Shell.GenericContainer from the IconGrid class was
challenging because it needs the "skip paint" API from it.
This API was added, too, as a workaround to the inability
to override vfuncs from GJS.

The overrides are largely copy-pasted and translated versions
of the Shell.GenericContainer code.

The IconGrid:key-focus-in signal was renamed to :child-focused
to avoid clashing with ClutterActor:key-focus-in.

In GridSearchResults, the internal IconGrid had it's y_expand
set to false, so it doesn't push other search elements (the
list results mainly) to the bottom of the screen.

Because skip paint wasn't and still isn't a GObject property,
rename it to _skipPaint to reflect that.

dash: Set scale and opacity on parent actor
DashItemContainer currently animates the scale and opacity
of its child when zooming in. This is visible when adding
a new favorite item to the dash; the items will zoom in from
the center.

After the previous commit, however, the zoom animation got
slightly broken, and looked like the icon was coming from
the bottom instead of the center.

Fix that by setting the scale and opacity of DashItemContainer
itself, instead of its child. Remove the unused code after that
too.

switcherList: Stop using Shell.GenericContainer
This commit removes all the uses of Shell.GenericContainer from
SwitcherPopup.SwitcherList. Compared to the other patches, this
one was specially trickier to get right, and a few invasive
changes needed to be done.

The most noticeable one is that the allocation of the items is
done entirely by St.BoxLayout -- we don't manually allocate them
anymore. To make it work, get_preferred_width() had to calculate
the correct value. It now assumes that:

 * Minimum width: the minimum width of the widest child.
 * Natural width: the minimum width of the StBoxLayout (use it
   instead of the natural width to force the labels to ellipsize
   when too long.)

The AppIcon class became a St.Widget subclass as well, to override
get_preferred_width() and be able to keep the squared shape.

Besides that, add a new SwitcherButton class to reimplement squared
icons without having to resort to hacks in the size allocation
machinery. This class has a single vfunc override to ensure that it
is squared when the SwitcherList is.

The arrows indicating multiple windows are now in this._list
actor to the SwitcherPopup itself, since this._list automatically
manages its own children now.

At last, adapt (but preserve) the hack in CyclerPopup.

switcherPopup: Rename destroy() to fadeAndDestroy()
In the process of purging all usages of Shell.GenericContainer
of GNOME Shell, one specific problematic situation that might
occur is when classes have functions that would clash with any
ClutterActor or StWidget function name.

One of such example is SwitcherPopup.destroy(). Right now, this
class is a pure JavaScript class that wraps a real actor, but
soon this will change, and it'll become a St.Widget subclass.

Another problem with functions that mimic the toolkit ones is
the predictability of them; after calling destroy(), that widget
is expected to not be available anymore. In SwitcherPopup case,
it is still available for a short while. In this case, that's not
a big problem, but the show() and hide() functions in other clases
are more problematic because the actor's visibility does not
follow that.

This commit is a first step in cleaning that up, and changes the
SwitcherPopup.destroy() to fadeAndDestroy().

panel: Stop using Shell.GenericContainer
Shell.GenericContainer exposes the size negotiation machinery
through the use of signals. Signals are not specially performant.
One of the reasons is that they acquire a global lock for signal
handlers lookup. GNOME Shell has more than 2,000 actors at any
given point in time, up to 20 levels deep in hierarchy, making
size negotiation and painting non-trivial tasks. Such a critical
section of Clutter's machinery shouldn't rely on signals
whatsoever.

Regardless of that, Shell.GenericContainer is a workaround to
a non-existing issue anymore. It shouldn't be used anyway, and
any performance improvements that removing it can potentially
yield are bonuses to it.

This commit starts this work by removing Shell.GenericContainer
usage from Panel.Panel class. The class now extends St.Widget,
and as such, it has no "this.actor" field set anymore. A couple
of places where this actor field was used are adjuste as well.

It is important to notice that we now allocate the Panel itself
inside vfunc_allocate(). This was previously done before emitting
the signal by Shell.GenericContainer.

501a1aff68 appFavorites: Don't add app explicitly
When adding a favorite, we add the ID to the list of favorites, save the
setting and add the new app to the favorites map. However as writing the
settings value already results in reload() to update the favorites map,
the new app is usually already in the map when we add it.

The only exception is when the ID was found in the RENAMED_DESKTOP_IDS map,
in which case we end up adding both the renamed app and the original one.
Fix this by simply relying on reload() to properly update the map, just like
we already do in _removeFavorite().

7190666075 closeDialog: Untrack chrome when window loses focus
On X11, reactive chrome must be added to the input region in order
to work as expected. However that region works independently from
any window stacking, with the result that the unresponsive-app dialog
currently blocks all input in the "covered" area, even in windows
stacked above the unresponsive window.

The correct fix would be to track the unobscured parts of the dialog
and set the input region from that, but that's quite cumbersome. So
instead, only track chrome when the corresponding window is focused
(or the dialog itself of course).

e2f6a1980d automountManager: Explicitly track active operations
As a mount operation's UI may be reused (for example after mistyping
the password), we only close the operation once the mount has finished
(successfully or with error).

We therefore need to track ongoing operations, which we currently do
by monkey-patching the corresponding volume object. However while the
underlying GVolume object indeed remains the same through-out the
operation, the JS wrapper object isn't referenced anywhere and may
thus be garbage collected, resulting in a stuck dialog.

Fix this issue by tracking active operations explicitly, so that all
involved objects are referenced until the end of the operation.

Only the three types of secrets actually in use by NM's IWD backend are

no functional effect.

'specific_object' but got type 'undefined'".

Looking into this, it seems the problem is these uses of the
`path` property of an NMAccessPoint. NMAccessPoint inherits
from NMObject, and NMObject *does* have a path property:

https://developer.gnome.org/libnm/stable/NMObject.html#NMObject--path

so at first glance this seems fine. But I poked around a bit
using libnm via Python (which goes via introspection, just like
this JS code does), and found that indeed AccessPoint objects
don't seem to have a `path` property there either.

Looking at the libnm code, this actually makes sense, because
the property is marked "(skip)":

https://github.com/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/blob/master/libnm/nm-object.c#L1291

and the introspection docs suggest that means it should be left
out of introspected output:

https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GObjectIntrospection/Annotations#Symbol_visibility

I'm a bit concerned that this was only found recently - whereas
the change to use `.path` in gnome-shell dates from October 2017
(d71af5e5) and the property has been marked (skip) in NM since
at least 2016 - but this all seems to add up. The obvious fix is
to replace use of `.path` with `.get_path()`, which returns the
path and is *not* marked (skip) and so *is* available via
introspection. I tested that this works in Python and also did
a test build of gnome-shell with this change and installed it on
an affected system, it does seem to fix the bug.
