Instead of using the 'extension-state-changed' signal to relay errors,
use DBus's native error mechanism to inform the method caller that the
call has failed. This requires making the method actually asynchronous
so that we don't block the browser, which is stuck waiting for a reply
from the browser plugin. To ensure this, we need to modify the browser
plugin API to ensure its extesion installation method is asynchronous.
Additionally, this lets us remove the awful, broken hacks that we used
when a user clicked the "Cancel" button, replacing it by a DBus return
value.

When the extension downloader was originally designed, the information
downloading part was inserted at the last minute, along with the modal
dialog as a security feature to make sure an extension didn't silently
get installed on the user's machines either due to a security issue in
the browser-plugin, or an XSS issue on the extensions website. Correct
the mistake I made when writing the code; instead of dropping an error
on the floor, log it correctly. This "bug" has already bitten a number
of users who forgot to configure proxy settings in the control center.

Since we're going to move to a much more complicated (async!) solution
in a little bit, we're going to require a lot more machinery to handle
that. To help with that, let's rework invocation dispatch so that it's
more generic. Introduce a parse_args system similar to gjs_parse_args,
use X Macros to help with the repetitive parts of the method dispatch.
This shouldn't cause any API breaks, so API_VERSION should still be 4.

Instead of using g_strndup to copy the NPString that gets passed to us
by the plugin host, just use the equally-as-good NPString directly. We
still need to copy the string when passing it over DBus, as there's no
easy way to construct a string GVariant from a length-prefixed string.

Pam seems to give us different strings, sometimes 'Password:',
sometimes 'Password: '. Look for both of these when replacing
them with a translated prompt.

The current position below "System Settings" is problematic - the
items are unrelated, and misclicks will result in a scary system
modal dialog that has to be cancelled.
Move items around a bit to avoid this problem.

Right now the "move to workspace" keyboard shortcut transition isn't smooth. It
shows the window disappearing, hopping to the next workspace, and then sliding
into view. "Pin" the window to the stage while the animation is in progress,
then release it afterwards.

Install a custom handler for move-to-workspace-* keybindings that
shows the workspace switcher, which gives the user a sense of
direction when navigating with the keyboard.

Most of code implementing workspace switches was repeated with
minor differences on each direction. Instead, consolidate it
and use the new meta_workspace_get_neighbor.

get_app_for_window() is (transfer full), but shell_app_system_lookup_wmclass()
is (transfer none), so we must reference the result, or crash
occur.

When using dbus-glib, single return values were special-cased to
be returned verbatim rather than as array with a single element.
This is no longer true since switching to GDBus, so fix the places
where the change was overlooked.

We strongly expect applications to use the same values for the
'Title'/'Icon' fields in their search provider .ini file as the
'Name'/'Icon' fields in their .desktop file. Rather than requiring
applications to duplicate those fields, allow them to specify a
'DesktopId' field instead to point to the corresponding .desktop
file, which makes it possible to ship search provider files without
translatable strings (which is nice given that merging translations
into search provider files lacks a standard rule).

Currently we pass an icon name for the 'icon' parameter of the
RemoteSearchProvider constructor. In hindsight, using a GIcon
instead will give us a bit more flexibility, so change it.

When running with Valgrind, this helps us ensure that we're managing
memory correctly. We need to GC twice as finalizing an object in the
sweep can unroot objects which were already marked. Technically, it
could be that we'll need to GC more than twice, but GCing twice should
hopefully last us for now.

clutter_actor_get_children returns a newly allocated GList and it was
not freed.
However, as there's no reason to copy the children list, switch to
iterator api.

Use the ShellMountOperation dialogs we have to implement a DBus API
allowing other processes to display them.
Since GtkMountOperation now tries to call into our DBus implementation,
every application that uses a GtkMountOperation will gain integration
with our shell dialogs (but will still handle the actual communication
with GVfs).
