Meson's gtk-doc support currently requires the main SGML/XML file
to be located in the srcdir, so instead of substituting the module
version in that file directly, use a small auxiliary file that's
included via a custom entity.

When using the meson build system, gvc will be built as a subproject.
As meson restricts submodules to a subprojects/ directory in the
source tree root, move the submodule there.

GTK+ switched from ruby-based sass to c-based sassc for performance

This allows us to pass metadata fields besides the message
to log. So, if the log() call is made from an extension,
pass the extension name and UUID to the logger.
This is useful for extension developers to debug their code
as well as to instruct their users to send debug info to them
by running something like this:
journalctl GNOME_SHELL_EXTENSION_UUID=<extension@uuid>

intltool is unmaintained nowadays while upstream gettext gained
support for formats like GSettings schemas and .desktop files,
and offers a mechanism to teach it about other XML formats not
yet supported out of the box which we can use for the rest.
