ES6 finally adds standard class syntax to the language, so we can
replace our custom Lang.Class framework with the new syntax. Any
classes that inherit from GObject will need special treatment,
so limit the port to regular javascript classes for now.

While this sounds counter-intuitive, the image-path hint value might also
be used with URIs or icon names.
As per freedesktop standard:
The "app_icon" parameter and "image-path" hint should be either an URI
(file:// is the only URI schema supported right now) or a name in a
freedesktop.org-compliant icon theme (not a GTK+ stock ID).
Thus the image-path hint should also be parsed as it happens for the
app_icon.
Reuse same logic, by falling back on _iconForNotificationData with the
hint value.

Differently from the fd.o notifications, Gtk notifications do not
have a mechanism to update themselves. Instead, when a new
notification is received for an ID already known to the notification
daemon, the old notification is dismissed and a replaced with a new
one.
Currently though, there is no way to distinguish a notification that
was dismissed because of an user interaction, or because it was
replaced. That is an useful piece of information, so add a new value
to the NotificationDestroyedReason enum to account for it.

When not using arrow notation with anonymous functions, we use Lang.bind()
to bind `this` to named callbacks. However since ES5, this functionality
is already provided by Function.prototype.bind() - in fact, Lang.bind()
itself uses it when no extra arguments are specified. Just use the built-in
function directly where possible, and use arrow notation in the few places
where we pass additional arguments.

When making any D-Bus call through the GDBus' proxy wrapper with an
invalid D-Bus object path, gnome-shell hangs.
Supposedly FdoApplicationProxy constructor should validate the passed
D-Bus object path and throw an error if the path is invalid. Since it
does not do that, we work it around by making sure that the deduced
D-Bus object path is valid or throw an exception if the path is not.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=787902
Some application IDs contain hyphens, which are not allowed in D-Bus object
paths, so we need to update the translation by converting them to something
that's a valid object path. This is consistent with what GApplication does.

Any symbols (including class properties) that should be visible
outside the module it's defined in need to be defined as global.
For now gjs still allows the access for 'const', but get rid of
the warnings spill now by changing it.

GNotifications are persistent until dismissed or withdrawn, including
across restarts. As we show the time a notification was received in the
calendar, we need to include that information when serializing the
notification in order to be correct.

The following code is a syntax error in ES6:
let a = 'something';
let a = 'other thing';
Previously GJS would silently accept this code, but in the next release the
SpiderMonkey JS engine will be more ES6-compliant.

When a GNotification has the same ID as a previous one, it should
be shown as a new notification after withdrawing the old one.
However for this to work, we must not destroy the corresponding
source if withdrawing the old notification lets the notification
count drop to zero, so make sure the source is kept alive until
the replace operation has completed.

Clicking on calendar notifications might block till the DBus request times
out if the application being poked happens to be non-responsive. Perform
this asynchronously so we don't block if that is the case.
No Source subclass used it to do anything special, and with sources
no longer having any UI representation on their own, doing anything
else isn't useful either, so just kill off that hook.

There is not good reason why activating a GTK+ notification should
behave fundamentally different from fd.o notifications - we don't
raise the app because we expect it to perform an appropriate action,
but that does not include closing overview or calendar for us ...
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744817
Just like we leave the overview when activating a notification,
the calendar popup should be closed - after all, the only case
where the calendar is open when a notification's default action
is activated is the user clicking an entry in the message list's
notification section.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744817
When we will start to show notifications in the date drop-down, we
will not use the actual notification actor, but construct our own UI
based on Calendar.Message. This is similar to what we already do in
the lock screen, except that in this case clicking the notification
should activate the default action.
So rename the existing _onClicked() method to activate() to make it
clear that such use is acceptable. While not strictly necessary, also
rename the corresponding signal to match.

This capability was only really useful for media players, and with
music notifications no longer being special, we can simplify a bit
by removing support for it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744815
Music is no longer a special type of notification according
to the design. If we want to resurrect the functionality, we
can reimplement it with a dedicated API like MPRIS rather
than piggy-bagging on the notification system.

Tray icons make for a terrible UI on their own, but trying to
shoehorn them into the notification system has only made them
worse. At least for the time being this removal is temporary
and support for tray icons will be back, but no longer as part
of the notification system.

As far as I can tell, the only behavior change of a transient source
is that they auto-destroy after viewing their summary box pointer.
Since all transient sources are only associated with transient
notifications, it seems that we can never get to their summary box
pointer in the first place! Remove support for this.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=710115
While the existing comment is correct in that a source's notifications
will be destroyed first, the code takes a shortcut which prevents the
Source::count-updated signal from being emitted. Given that the purpose
of the signal is to keep notification counters up-to-date which is
pointless when the source is about to be destroyed, the shortcut makes
sense; just save notifications explicitly in that case.
