7db92ad5d9 extensionSystem: Add an explicit approval dialog
Pop up a dialog when trying to install an extension so that users are aware
they are installing one. This is a security precaution in the case that an XSS
exploit has been found on the website, which could cause someone to inject a
<script> tag and silently install an extension.

fa593a3e15 extensionSystem: Use the system cert list
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.

When the user installs an extension, we always enable it. Change the

7928f90cf6 extensionSystem: Add "UninstallExtension" DBus method
For those who like their system pure, this provides the ability to purge a
pesky extension and its precious place on your disk space, and in your
"Local Extension" list.

d8a98e5467 extensionSystem: Add install-from-HTTP capability
This adds a new DBus method: InstallExtensionRemote(uuid : s, url : s)

Pass it the UUID of an extension and the URL of a manifest file: the same as a
metadata.json, but with a special key, '__installer', which is an HTTP location
that points to an zip file containing the extension. The Shell will download
and use it to install the extension. In the future, the manifest file may be
used to automatically detect and install updates.

2d813cbdd8 extensionSystem: Implement new live enable/disable system
The rough sketches of the system are outlined here:

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-shell-list/2011-June/msg00283.html

Additionally, enable/disable extensions when the 'enabled-extensions' setting
changes. Two new DBus methods, "EnableExtension" and "DisableExtension" allow
users to manipulate this setting quite easily.

6d3434f3a5 extensionSystem: Remove 'disabled-extensions' blacklist
The two similar keys were hard to manipulate to have specific effects, so just
remove one. Now there is an *explicit* whitelist: all extensions must be in the
'enabled-extensions' for them to be loaded.

5810fcb14d extensionSystem: Save extension errors per-extension
Extension developers may be confused about why their extensions aren't working:
the LookingGlass isn't a very obvious place, or even which errors are theirs.
To remedy this, save all errors per-UUID which allows them to be retrieved
later.

92f09a60f6 Add shell_get_file_contents_utf8_sync(), use it instead of gio temporarily
Adding correct annotations to Gio.File.load_contents revealed that gjs
doesn't actually support array+length combinations.  For 3.0 this would
be invasive to fix, so add a method to ShellGlobal which does what
we need.

5412ce276c ExtensionSystem: introduce versioning
Require that all extensions have a "shell-version" property in their
metadata, which is an array of supported Shell versions.
Extensions can target a specific version triple or an entire stable
version.
Optionally, they can also require a specific GJS version, to ensure
compatibility.

6df48b68fa extensionSystem: Don't load extensions multiple times
Right now if XDG_DATA_DIRS is set to have duplicate entries,
then the extension system will try to load all extensions
more than once.

This commit prevents an extension from getting repeatedly
loaded by checking if its uuid is already registered.

2799327c84 Migrate to GSettings
Use GSettings for all Shell configuration. GConf is kept to read
configuration from external programs (Metacity, Nautilus and Magnifier),
but ShellGConf is removed because it's mostly useless for the few calls
we still have. Also get rid of unused GConf code in ShellAppSystem.

A basic GConf schema is still used to override Metacity defaults and
configure Magnifier in a system-wide fashion. GConf is also used as
GSettings backend via the GSETTINGS_BACKEND environment variable.
All of this will be removed when these programs have been ported
to GSettings and able to use dconf.

GLib 2.25.9 is required. Schemas are converted to the new XML format,
and compiled at build time in data/ so that the Shell can be run from
the source tree. This also requires setting the GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR
environment variable both when running installed or from source tree,
in src/gnome-shell.in and src/gnome-shell-clock-preferences.in.

703b21cef0 Don't use double quotes for things that don't need to be translated
This is our convention.

The only exceptions are double quotes for words in comments that give
them a special meaning (though beware that these quotes are not truly
necessary most of the time) and double quotes that need to be a part
of the output string.

b1486f54c8 [ShellGlobal] Change location for user files to XDG_DATA_HOME
While the extension system already uses an XDG location (XDG_CONFIG_HOME),
other components use the deprecated $HOME/.gnome2 directory.
Replace both with XDG_DATA_HOME - the existing data (app usage stats,
looking glass history and extensions) is not migrated to the new location.

aa9d3515a1 Add extensionSystem
Consumer documentation will live at http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Extensions

In terms of implementation; basically we load extensions from the well-known
directories.  Add a GConf key to disable extensions by uuid.  There is a new
option --create-extension for the gnome-shell script which takes a bit of
interactive input, sets up some sample files, and launches gedit.

No extensions UI in this patch; that will come later.
