Other windows like the mutter Xwayland selection bridges might deal with
the clipboard, which would result in events visible on st-clipboard event
filters.
In order to avoid unintended results, ignore events that are not meant for
the clipboard window.

Similar to bug 667552 for the app switcher, attached modal dialogs
can result in an unexpected window order in the window switcher:
Selecting a window with an attached dialog will focus the dialog
instead, but as the dialog itself is ignored in the window list,
its last-used timestamp is not taken into account for the position
in the MRU list. Fix this by fetching the list of all NORMAL windows
and filter out skip-taskbar windows ourselves, while making sure that
windows appear in the position of their attached modal dialog where
appropriate.

We only connect to the corresponding property notifications after both
Client and RemoteSettings are ready, so we may miss the initial signal
emission. Make sure to pick up the connections in this case to fix the
network indicator not showing up.

Similar to windows on another workspace, selecting a minimized window
doesn't look quite right - the selected window disappears, then animates
back in. Fix this by adding support for skipping the next effect to the
wm and use it to bypass the unminimize animation.

Both 'cycle-group' and 'cycle-window' shortcuts allow cycling through
windows on all workspaces. While this works, it looks quite broken
since we started showing clones for highlighting: the selected window
vanishes (when its clone is destroyed), then slides back in with its
workspace. Instead, slide the selected window to its workspace like
we do for the 'move-to-workspace-*' shortcuts.

Commit 3171819c improved window cycling by using a dedicated to clone
for highlighting rather than activating all cycled windows. Original
window actors are hidden while its clone is showing, and shown again
afterwards, however the latter is wrong for actors that are not supposed
to be visible (for example where the window is minimized, or on a different
workspace). Fix this by properly syncing the actor's visibility instead
of showing it unconditionally.

ScrolledWindow changed its allocation behavior, and the extension
list only takes up the minimum width rather than the available
width as intended. To get the previous behavior back, we need
to set the newly added :propagate-natural-width property ...

If the user clicks Not Listed? to enter ask for username mode, clicks
cancel, and then attempts to log in via the user list, the user will see
"Authentication failed" after correctly typing the password, and then
will become stuck in an empty screen with just the gray noise background.
The problem is, we forgot to disconnect from the signal that's waiting
for the next button to be pressed on the username entry screen. Since
the signal handler that executes here is expecting the username to be
input, and isn't prepared for us to have switched back to user list,
various bad things happen. We try to start two gdm-password
conversations at once, for instance, one using the user's password as
the username. I stopped investigating here, because it's easy to fix by
disconnecting from the signal at the right time.

Since commit 82950ecea, we acknowledge pending messages when closing a
chat notification for a channel we are handling to prevent the channel
from popping up again immediately. While this isn't an issue for channels
we don't handle, the unread messages of the destroyed notification are
still considered for the messages indicator in the top bar, which is
clearly confusing (in particular when we end up showing the indicator
without any notifications in the list). As it's arguably correct to not
meddle with a channel handled by someone else, just reset the cache of
pending messages to address this issue.

Nowadays, the user interface has mostly stabilized with most changes
happening under the hood. As a result, extensions written for previous
versions of GNOME Shell are very much expected to keep working on
updates, if it wasn't for the version check that requires a version
bump in the extension metadata. There has been a setting to disable
that check for a while, but it's existence isn't widely known (hence
the common perception that "everything breaks on updates"). While
there is still some risk that an out-of-date extension can be enabled
without error, but fails spectacularly later (where we cannot catch
the exception), it is reasonably small by now when compared to the
~95% of extensions that can be "unbroken", so swap the default value
to disable version checks by default.

Mutter's plugin destroy event doesn't happen if a window is hidden
when it gets unmanaged so we also need to handle the
MetaWindow::unmanaged signal to check whether the parent should
dimmed.

meta_window_foreach_transient() iterates through all transients of a
window, not only direct transients. This means that simply checking if
a transient is an attached dialog isn't enough because it might be a
non-direct transient for the window we're checking, in which case we
don't want to dim the window.
In particular this fixes windows not getting undimmed when they have
more that one level of transient children and the direct transient gets
destroyed. In that case we would still find at least one non-direct
transient child and decide to keep the window dimmed.

Commit bd6e7f14d1 reimplemented the cycle keybindings to
fix cycling between more than two windows, but the approach
of highlighting cycled windows by actually focusing them has
the drawback that cycling messes up the MRU order of windows.
To fix this, only change the window focus when the operation
finishes, and use a dedicated actor that draws a border around
a window clone for highlighting.

There's no particular reason for this actor to be reactive and thus
preventing input events to reach actors underneath, e.g. quickly
clicking on something while the popup isn't yet finished animating
out.
