I always forget to keep the extension-tool version number in sync when
doing a new release. Given that it's unlikely that I'll do much better
in the future by myself, make distcheck fail when the versions don't
match.

Some (newer?) GCC versions complain when a g_auto variable isn't
initialized when declared, even when the initialization is guaranteed
to happen before the variable is used or goes out of scope.

Now that we support extension updates, it may be useful to list
pending updates from the command line. It's easy enough to support,
so add a corresponding option to the list command.

After creating a new extension, we try to open the main source
file with the default handler, which fails when there is none.
But given that the extension was created successfully, don't treat
a missing handler as failure, and print the path to the new extension
instead.

While we can now build gnome-extensions-tool as stand-alone project,
we are currently missing any translations, as those are part of
gnome-shell.
The easiest option for addressing this would be to symlink the toplevel
po directory into the subproject, however that would mean duplicating
the entire gnome-shell message catalogs.
So instead, set up a bare po directory and provide a script to populate
it from the translations in the toplevel po directory.

The gnome-extensions tool code is really independent from the rest of the
code base, and could be used either as part of the gnome-shell build or as
stand-alone project (for example for the extension-ci docker image).
We can actually support both cases by moving the code to a subproject.
