MetaContext:unsafe-mode was added as a debugging tool to temporarily
remove restrictions on privileged APIs. But as it turns out, there
are now extensions that toggle the property permanently. Right now
none of them are malicious (as far as I can see), but it's still a
bad idea and should be discouraged.
Do this with a notification that warns the user when unsafe mode is
enabled non-interactively (i.e. via looking glass), and hopefully
also clarifies what the weird lock icon in the top bar is about.

libgnome-bluetooth will start to offer a 2.0 library version
depending on GTK4. Given that GNOME Shell already depends on
GTK3, it cannot use this next version of gnome-bluetooth. And
since GJS will automatically try and use the latest version
available of any library, Shell must specify it wants 1.0
explicitly.
Add a required GnomeBluetooth version number when importing it
for the status indicator.

Showing multiple preference dialogs at the same time (for instance
by repeated `gnome-extensions prefs` calls) may or may not work as
expected, depending on whether any of the dialogs is modal or not
(read: opened via the Extensions app).
The easiest way to address this is to disallow more than a single
dialog at the time. It's arguably also the more predictable behavior,
and means extensions don't have to deal with inconsistent state
caused by multiple dialogs.

GTK4 relies entirely on refcounting for cleanup (that is,
there is no longer a destroy() method that forces a dispose
run regardless of the refcount).
Unfortunately that makes cleanup harder in (some) language
bindings, where an object may be kept alive implicitly by
closures etc.
Address this by releasing the hold count when the window
is closed rather than when it is destroyed.
This isn't the most elegant, but it ensure that the service
doesn't get stuck if an extension doesn't carefully clean
up everything in its prefs widget.

We currently ignore any error that may occur when calling the
OpenExtensionPrefs D-Bus method. Right now such an error is highly
unlikely, given that we already checked that we are running under
gnome-shell and the extension in question exists and has prefs.
We'll soon make sure that only one dialog is shown at any time,
which is an error that we can realistically expect, so handle that
properly.

Windows from some applications, such as guake, are created as showing on
all workspaces. When these windows are put on the workspaces via
set_workspace_state() during construction, the first time the window is
added to a workspace in the loop triggers the shell app tracker which
then tries to move the window to its startup workspace. This makes the
window unsticky which triggers another set_workspace_state() which
tries to remove the window from all workspaces, but currently it is only
on the first one and then adds it to the startup workspace. Once that is
finished, the first set_workspace_state() continues adding the window
to the remaining workspaces, despite the window now no longer having
on_all_workspaces set to true.
When the window is now unmanaged, the window according to its internal
state is only found on the startup workspace, so it will only be removed
from that. This causes the assertion to fail that checks that the window
is no longer present on any workspace after this.

Like the old Tweener API, ease() allows to transition multiple
properties at once. If autoReverse or repeatCount are specified,
they should apply to all transitions, but right now we only set
them for the first one.

Now that we allow extensions at the lock screens, extensions
are allowed for every session mode gnome-shell would typically
change to at runtime.
This means there's little advantage to having an allowExtensions
property in the session mode definition.
This commit simplifies the code a bit by dropping the property.
Third party session modes can still lock down extensions through
gsettings if they need to.
