Turn the existing EventsList into a MessageListSection and add the
message list to the calendar drop-down. The new events list only
displays events for the currently selected day, but in a more
structured and friendlier way than the old one.

Menu items are on their way out of the calendar drop down, so let's
start with the easy one. This one is removed without replacement,
but then the Date & Time panel should be a one-time stop for most
users anyway, so not having a direct shortcut should not be much of
a problem. It is also the last remaining Settings item outside the
system menu ...

The new design has the events list on the left and the calendar on the
right, so swap them around and remove the vertical separator between
them in favor of some additional whitespace as in the mockups.

Commit 1291bcd0c8 implemented it for dateMenu, but the function
is already used in screenShield as well. Just add it globally as
we do for other standard gettext "macros".
Splits instantiation of the event source into a separate method,
allowing extensions to subclass the DateMenuButton and provide its
own calendar source.

We commonly mark strftime format strings for translation to account
for date/time representations without an existing strftime shortcut
("Yesterday %H%p"). As those translations are looked up according to
the locale defined by LC_MESSAGES, while the conversion characters
themselves are resolved according to LC_TIME, the result can be
rather odd when mixing locales ("Den 27. January"). The correct
solution would be to install translations for format strings in
the LC_TIME catalogue and look them up with dcgettext(), but we
don't have the infrastructure to do that easily. Work around this
by adding a helper method that looks up a string in LC_MESSAGES
using the locale defined by LC_TIME and use that to translate
format strings, which has the same result.

Instead of waking up the JS every second to set the clock and update a
date label the user will rarely see, simply use property binding to
bypass JS string handling, and update the date in the menu when the menu
is opened.
Commit 14ceb10555 changed the "Open Calendar" item to open the
"recommended" calendar application rather than the default one to
avoid problems with MIME subclassing (namely falling back to the
default text editor when no calendar app is installed).
With this change however, the application launched does no longer
necessarily match the one configured in Settings, which is unexpected.
To avoid both problems, use the default calendar application again,
but only if it is in the list of recommended applications.

Having the ability to go to the current date if the user is already
on the current date can be confusing. So don't make the button reactive
until the selected date changes.

Once you start navigating between months, you can't return to the
current day. However, the current day is always displayed above the
calendar grid. Fix this by making the current date clickable; when
clicked, the calendar grid jumps back to that day.

To align the arrows, we need to allocate panel buttons the full
height of the tray. Fix up all of the panel buttons to support this,
and align the arrows in the middle.

The code here before was trying to play hierarchy tricks to
figure out how to show / hide the events list, which broke
when we rearranged how the date menu was laid out. Simplify
the code here to not be so tricky, and update the CSS to
match the new designs.

In order to have event descriptions on multiple lines, but still
maintain proper alignment with the day and time strings, refactor
the whole event list to be one big table. Headers are implemented
as spanning cells, and uneven spacing is a mix of row/column spacing
and cell padding.

When commit 724a2bd7 changed the way to determine the default
calendar app, it dropped all special handling of evolution.
Unfortunately we still need it to not end up with the default
mail component, so add it back.

Instead of sometimes having an event source and sometimes not, use
the empty event source when the session mode says the calendar is
disabled. This way, the code can assume an event source object and
avoid checks.

This is similar to how the dateMenu already allows opening the calendar
application. However, the new entry only appears if GNOME Clocks is
installed, as it is not a core GNOME application.

Due to limitations and bugs in SpiderMonkey's GC, wrapper objects
for cairo contexts and similar may not get cleaned up immediately
after repainting, leading to leaking memory. Explicitly disposing
of such objects after they're not needed can clean up large portions
of memory for cairo surfaces.

The configured calendar application might not actually be installed.
Instead of failing with an error message, hide the menu item altogether
in this case.

Since we eventually want to add a system for changing the top panel
contents depending on the current state of the shell, let's use the
"session mode" feature for this, and add a mechanism for updating the
session mode at runtime. Add support for every key besides the two
functional keys, and make all the components update automatically when the
session mode is changed. Add a new lock-screen mode, and make the lock
screen change to this when locked.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683156
When selecting "Open Calendar" in the date menu, the configured
application is launched via command line, so we don't get any
startup notification. If Evolution is used as calendar application,
launch it via the .desktop file added by the last commit instead in
order to fix the issue.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677907
On the code two labels are created. One is used on the date menu
itself, and the other for the menu icon at the top panel. The wrong
label was used as the label_actor for the top panel menu icon.

js2-mode is no longer developed and we recommend js-mode these days,
so switch the modelines to specify that, and make them consistent

The control-center contains user-pertinent settings
panels. These panels don't make sense to show outside
of a user's session, so hide them for session types other
than SessionType.USER.

Right now, when a user clicks on the panel clock, a menu pops up with a
calendar and a list of events from the user's schedule. The list of
events only makes sense from within a user's session, however.
As part of the prep work for making the shell a platform for the login
screen, this commit makes the events list optional.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657082
The theme currently hard codes the minimum size of the calendar
menu to make sure there's a designated area for events
(even if there isn't anything currently scheduled).
A side-effect of the hard coded minimum width is that
if the events area is hidden, the menu ends up much
bigger than the calendar. We don't currently ever hide
the events area, but we will in the future.
This commit moves the min-width restriction from the menu
specifically to the events area.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657082
All the system status menus in the panel offer a
menu item to jump to a relevant part of the
control-center.
This means each status icon has the same, or nearly the
same bit of code to:
- Add a new "action" menu item and listen for its activation.
- Hide the overview if it's showing when the menu item is activated
- Find the relevant control-center panel from its desktop file
- Launch the control-center to the relevant panel
This commit consolidates all those details in a new method,
addSettingsAction. This refactoring reduces code duplication and
slight inconsistencies in the code resulting from that duplication.
It will also make it easier in subsequent commits to hide settings menu
items when the shell is used in the login screen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657082
Use the existing setting
org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.office.calendar.exec
as calendar application instead of the hard-coded evolution. Evolution
is still the fallback if that setting is cleared (it defaults to
evolution).

Since almost all of the callers of shell_app_activate were using the
default workspace (by passing -1), remove that parameter.
Add a new shell_app_activate_full() API which takes a workspace as
well as a timestamp; previously we might have been ignoring event
timestamps from elsewhere.

This dramatically thins down and sanitizes the application code.
The ShellAppSystem changes in a number of ways:
* Preferences are special cased more explicitly; they aren't apps,
they're shortcuts for an app), and we don't have many of them, so
don't need e.g. the optimizations in ShellAppSystem for searching.
* get_app() changes to lookup_app() and returns null if an app isn't
found. The semantics where it tried to find the .desktop file
if we didn't know about it were just broken; I am pretty sure no
caller needs this, and if they do we'll fix them.
* ShellAppSystem maintains two indexes on apps (by desktop file id
and by GMenuTreeEntry), but is no longer in the business of
dealing with GMenuTree as far as hierarchy and categories go. That
is moved up into js/ui/appDisplay.js. Actually, it flattens both
apps and settings.
Also, ShellWindowTracker is now the sole reference-owner for
window-backed apps. We still do the weird "window:0x1234beef" id
for these apps, but a reference is not stored in ShellAppSystem.
The js/ui/appDisplay.js code is rewritten, and sucks a lot less.
Variable names are clearer:
_apps -> _appIcons
_filterApp -> _visibleApps
_filters -> _categoryBox
Similarly for function names. We no longer call (for every app) a
recursive lookup in GMenuTree to see if it's in a particular section
on every category switch; it's all cached.
NOTE - this intentionally reverts the incremental loading code from
commit 7813c5b93f. It's fast enough
here without that.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648149
In commit 9bd22dc0, I introduced an API to load an arbitrary
.desktop file, not necessarily from the menu path. It turns
out this function was broken because it created ShellApp instances
that were *different* from ones that were cached normally.
As far as I can tell, we didn't initially use it. Then later
Util.spawnDesktop was created which used this function.
Remove this broken function and all callers; if we're loading
.desktop files from *outside* the menu path, we can look at
readding.
This patch also kills off Util.spawnDesktop in favor of callers
talking to ShellAppSystem directly, now that the latter reports
errors.

If we don't update every second, we may show the wrong time for up to
a minute on 1. resume; or 2. when changing the time; or 3. when
changing the timezone. This is both annoying and and leads to people
thinking that the tool for changing the time / timezone is broken.

It already doesn't work right, because the PanelMenuButton code
assumes that Left and Right won't be used as part of keynav within a
menu. And the gnome-panel calendar isn't keyboard accessible either,
so this isn't a regression. To be fixed later.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=641253
Unfortunately the evolution-data-server client-side libraries seem to
block the calling thread. This is a major problem as we must never
ever block the main thread (doing so causes animations to flicker
etc.). In the worst case, this problem causes login to hang (without
falling back to fall-back mode) and in the best case it slows down
login until a network connection is acquired.
Additionally, in order to sanely use these evolution-data-server
libraries, GConf has to be involved and GConf is not thread-safe. So
it's not really feasible just moving the code to a separate
thread. Therefore, move all calendar IO out of process and use a
simple (and private) D-Bus interface for the shell to communicate with
the out-of-process helper.
For simplification, remove existing in-process code since internal
interfaces have been slightly revised. This means that the shell is no
longer using any native code for drawing the calendar dropdown.

Currently the menu has a hardcoded width which result into the hover
effect of the "Open Calendar" item being "cut off" in the middle rather
then reaching to the edge.
To be consistent with other menu items, make it expand to fill the available
space.
We try to position the boxpointer centered above the calendar,
which swaps position with the events list when using a RTL locale,
so make the menu alignment dependent on the text direction.
