764527c8c9 js: Promisify async operations
Promises make asynchronous operations easier to manage, in particular
when used through the async/await syntax that allows for asynchronous
code to closely resemble synchronous one.

gjs has included a Gio._promisify() helper for a while now, which
monkey-patches methods that follow GIO's async pattern to return a
Promise when called without a callback argument.

Use that to get rid of all those GAsyncReadyCallbacks!

c860409da5 cleanup: Use object shorthand where possible
ES6 allows to omit property names where they match the name of the
assigned variable, which makes code less redunant and thus cleaner.
We will soon enforce that in our eslint rules, so make sure we use
the shorthand wherever possible.

f250643385 style: Use space after catch
We are currently inconsistent with whether or not to put a space
after catch clauses. While the predominant style is to omit it,
that's inconsistent with the style we use for any other statement.
There's not really a good reason to stick with it, so switch to
the style gjs/eslint default to.

3b1330880f cleanup: Use Function.prototype.bind()
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.

f5a28c2f24 remoteSearch: Fix remote search providers
Commit 289f982949 broke all remote providers when adding support for
non-auto-started search providers: Whether the provider should be
auto-started needs to be known in the constructor, so setting the
property on the constructed object doesn't work.

358133e82f Initialize properties in _init()
While we've always considered it good style to initialize JS properties,
some code that relies on uninitialized properties having an implicit
value of 'undefined' has slipped in over time. The updated SpiderMonkey
version used by gjs now warns when accessing those properties, so we
should make sure that they are properly initialized to avoid log spam,
even though all warnings addressed here occur in conditionals that
produce the correct result with 'undefined'.

0142fae742 search: copy result to clipboard if requested
Some search providers such as GNOME Characters want to copy search
results to clipboard.  However, on Wayland, clipboards are only
accessible from applications that have a visible surface on display.

This patch allows a search provider to request the shell to copy a
search result to clipboard when 'clipboardText' is included in the meta
of the result.

048a14f1f3 Search: use the same settings object for loading search providers
In recent glib, change notifications don't actually happen unless all
keys have been read, in an effort to reduce unnecessary dbus
traffic for shortlived GSettings object and avoid AddMatch calls.
But we care about changes here, so we need to make sure we're
subscribed, and an easy way to do so is to reuse the same object
to watch for changes and to load the active providers at startup.

b0be6b8678 RemoteSearch: don't complete a search that was cancelled
This closes a race between setTerms and a slow GetInitialResultSet.
The bug manifests as follows:
- initial search for a short string
- previous results === undefined, call GetInitialResultSet
- user types more, cancel previous search in setTerms()
- mainloop, then _gotResults([])
- previous results === [], !!previous results === true
- therefore call GetSubsearchResultSet with an empty list of results
- _gotResults() from GetSubsearchResultSet is empty
- much later, return from GetInitialResultSet is discarded by
  cancellable
- user unhappy because what he searched for is not there

After this fix, the flow is:
- initial search for a short string
- previous results === undefined, call GetInitialResultSet
- user types more, cancel previous search in setTerms()
- mainloop, but no _gotResults
- previous results === undefined, call GetInitialResultSet again with
  longer string
- some time later, return from first GetInitialResultSet is discarded
  by cancellable
- soon after, return from second GetInitialResultSet comes with good
  results
- user happy

da4238ec68 Synchronize shell startup
The asynchronous nature of extension loading, session loading, and more,
makes the code racy as to what is initialized first, and hard to debug.
Additionally, since gjs is single-threaded, the only code we're running
in a thread anyway is readdir, which is going to be I/O bound, so the
code here is actually likely to be faster.

Drop this in favor of some good old fashioned synchronous loading.

9cd7ea9371 search: Make the internal search interface callback-based
Long ago, the search system worked in a synchronous manner: providers
were given a query, and results were collected in a single array of
[provider, results] pairs, and then the search display was updated
from that.

We introduced an asynchronous search system when we wanted to potentially
add a Zeitgeist search provider to the Shell in 3.2. For a while, search
providers were either async or sync, which worked by storing a dummy array
in the results, and adding a method for search providers to add results
later.

Later, we removed the search system entirely and ported the remaining
search providers to simply use the API to modify the empty array, but the
remains of the synchronous search system with its silly array still
lingered.

Finally, it's time to modernize. Promises^WCallbacks are the future.

Port the one remaining in-shell search engine (app search) to the new
callback based system, and simplify the remote search system in the
process.

be961cd60e remoteSearch: Load remote search providers synchronously
As we only reload search providers on startup or when the sort order changes,
and given the small number of search providers we'll actually load, I doubt
we'll see any speed decrease.

The simplicity of synchronous code is also much clearer, and fully avoids
all the possible bugs about in-flight requests or similar.

This also prevents issues with multiple search providers showing up at once,
which happen when multiple requests to reload search providers get called
immediately, with the existing in-flight async requests never cancelled.

37e2b60cd3 search: Rename pushResults to setResults
pushResults, and the original async search API, were originally intended
so search results that weren't immediate could be added as they come in.
Since then, we've decided that the design of search results is that they
should finish at once with all results. Thus, the code was modified so
that pushResults always overwrote the current result set. As such, it makes
sense to rename the method so that the name matches the behavior.

17df668186 remoteSearch: support serialized GIcons
Since [1], GIO supports generic serialization and deserialization of a
GIcon into a GVariant. This is also implemented by GdkPixbuf and could be
used instead of our homegrown code for it.

This commit adds support to another 'icon' key in the metas dictionary
returned by applications for it. The previous 'gicon' and 'icon-data'
keys are still parsed and supported as before, but are now deprecated.
