Both bluetooth and screencast support are based on build checks
right now. However in both cases, the dependency is only consumed
at runtime via the typelib, so let's actually check for that.

!1940 added support for soup 3, including a fallback to soup 2.4
where the newer version isn't available.
Unfortunately it missed that libgweather has a hidden soup dependency,
and now gnome-shell fails to start if a weather location has been set
up and soup 3 is available.
We don't have a good way to detect that case, so hide the soup 3 support
behind a build option. Distributors are expected to switch it at the
same time as libgweather.

libnm doesn't only search for plugins in the regular VPN plugin directory,
but also in the legacy location and the directory pointed to by the
NM_VPN_PLUGIN_DIR environment variable (if set).
We don't monitor the additional directories, so it's possible for our cache
to become outdated.
Instead of trying to play catch-up with libnm's internals, do what nm-applet
does and use the appropriate API to look up the plugin on each request.

Commit dbf993300a moved all inline D-Bus interface descriptions to template
strings so we can stop escaping line breaks.
Unfortunately that unveiled a grave bug in xgettext, which currently cannot
handle files that contain both backtick and slash characters - as a result,
translations from affected files have started to disappear as translators
run xgettext/msgmerge.
Instead of reverting the change and getting the crusty escaping back, we
will take this as an opportunity to stop inlining the XML altogether and
load it from a resource instead.
To facilitate that, add a small helper method that loads a D-Bus interface
description from a dedicated resource bundle.

It turns out that NetworkManager does export the directory as pkg-config
variable after all, so use that instead of building the path ourselves
from the prefix.

Mutter now provides versioned libraries and pkg-config files, meaning
an application using libmutter and friends need to depend on a specific
version of the API.

The dependency chain spirals out from folks->zeitgeist->xapian...and
I'm really not interested in pulling in all of that into the core
shell.
There is work on splitting out contact search into gnome-contacts; I'd
add a bug link but Bugzilla is down.
This is seldomly used, and isn't checked in SweetTooth. Just remove
this inconsistency here rather than adding infrastructure to manage
and check it elsewhere.

Substitutions generated by configure don't resolve prefixes, so
cannot be used for paths. Config already had localedir, and next
commit will need libexecdir and sysconfdir, so just bite the bullet
and move to sed.

A new tool, 'gnome-shell-extension-prefs' can load a new entry point from
extensions, 'prefs.js', which has an entry point to return a GTK+ widget.
This allows extensions to have their own preferences dialog, without each
extension needing to ship its own Python script and .desktop file.

js2-mode is no longer developed and we recommend js-mode these days,
so switch the modelines to specify that, and make them consistent
across all files.

libsoup won't check for a valid cert by default, so copy some logic from
glib-networking to check against the system cert list. Additionally, allow a
fallback for developers, ~/.local/share/extensions.gnome.org.crt, for easy
local development of the website.

Add an entry in config.js.in for PACKAGE_VERSION and GJS_VERSION,
to be used by the notification daemon and in the future by the
extension system.
