Defining default apps as serialized GVariants isn't very human-friendly,
which likely contributes to the fact that the lists are in parts horribly
outdated (Books! Cheese! Screenshot! gedit!).
Instead, generate the lists at build time from simple text files, which
should be much easier to update.

Using the user object at `/org/freedesktop/login1/User/self` is
convenient, but has the caveat that login1 does not emit the
`PropertiesChanged` signal for the object.
That is indeed logical, as for signal emissions there is no
sender that can be used to resolve `self`.
The new TimeLimitsManager depends on change notifications for
user properties, so stop using the `self` shorthand and instead
create the User proxy for the user's UID.

Most of the function is already asynchronous, except for the
initialization of the returned proxy. gjs' D-Bus wrapper gained
some convenience API a while ago that makes this trivial enough,
so use it.

This fixes a bug which happens if screen time limits are *disabled* and
the history file
(`~/.local/share/gnome-shell/session-active-history.json`) is missing
when gnome-shell is started.
If so, the code would previously have incorrectly called
`this._stopStateMachine()` on startup, even though the state machine
wasn’t running. This adds a fake transition from ACTIVE to INACTIVE to
the history file.
If the user later (that day) enables time limits, the code assumes that
they were active from the start of the day through to that fake
transition, which is possibly sufficient time to reach the user’s limit
already. This results in the screen immediately being made greyscale as
the limit has apparently been reached.

This implements wellbeing screen time limits in gnome-shell. It depends
on a few changes in other modules:
- New settings schemas in gsettings-desktop-schemas
- A settings UI in gnome-control-center
- User documentation in gnome-user-docs
It implements the design from
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/settings-mockups/-/blob/master/wellbeing/wellbeing.png.
The core of the implementation is `TimeLimitsManager`, which is a state
machine which uses the user’s session state from logind to track how long
the user has been in an active session, in aggregate, during the day. If
this total exceeds their limit for the day, the state machine changes
state.
The user’s session activity history (basically, when they logged in and
out for the past 14 weeks) is kept in a state file in their home
directory. This is used by gnome-shell to count usage across reboots in
a single day, and in the future it will also be used to provide usage
history in gnome-control-center, so the user can visualise their
historic computer usage at a high level, for the past several weeks.
The `TimeLimitsDispatcher` is based on top of this, and controls showing
notifications and screen fades to make the user aware of whether they’ve
used the computer for too long today, as per their preferences.
Unit tests are included to check that `TimeLimitsManager` works, in
particular with its loading and storing of the history file. The unit
tests provide mock implementations of basic GLib clock functions, the
logind D-Bus proxy and `Gio.Settings` in order to test the state machine in
faster-than-real-time.

Unlike for plain JS Errors, the `message` property of GLib.Errors
is read-only, so the intent to replace it with a nicer message
triggers an Error itself.
We could create a new GLib.Error with the changed message instead,
but as it turns out, none of the parse errors contain the technical
prefix we want to strip out, so we can simply drop the special-casing
altogether.
This is also consistent with `spawnCommandLine()`, which never
had special treatment of parse errors.

This implements health break reminder support in gnome-shell. It depends
on a
few bits and bobs from other modules:
- New settings schemas in gsettings-desktop-schemas (released in
47.beta, which Mutter already depends on)
- A settings UI in gnome-control-center
- User documentation in gnome-user-docs
It implements the design from
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/Design/settings-mockups/-/blob/master/wellbeing/wellbeing.png.
The core of the implementation is `BreakManager`, which is a state
machine which uses the Mutter `IdleMonitor` to track whether the user
is, or should be, in a screen time break.
The `BreakDispatcher` is based on top of this, and controls showing
notifications, countdown timers, screen fades, the lock shield, etc. to
make the user aware of upcoming or due breaks, as per their notification
preferences.
Unit tests are included to check that `BreakManager` works. These
provide mock implementations of basic GLib clock functions, the
`IdleMonitor` and `Gio.Settings` in order to test the state machine in
faster-than-real-time.

There are cases when we want to mark an animation as required. For
example, we want the "Locate Pointer" animation to work even when
the animation is marked as disabled. Take this into account when
adjusting the animation time.

The return value currently indicates whether the request was
successful, namely `setCompletionEnabled(false)` will return
`true` if completions were successfully disabled.
However the only caller that uses the value uses it to indicate
whether completions were enabled.
Given that nothing else uses the value, change the meaning to
match the caller, and indicate whether completions are enabled
after the call returns.

session-removed signal will be used to close the conflicting session dialog
if it's not needed anymore.
getSession method will be used when a session is opened, to check if
there's already a conflicting opened session.

The ibus-typing-booster IM module is already meant to do the "right"
thing when the IBus.Capabilite.OSK hint is passed to the IM. We do
already honor that hint (commit 23bfd08b3c9), and ibus-typing-booster
has been doing this for a reasonably long time (first release seems
to be 2.19.9 dated 2 years ago, current is 2.24.12).
Drop this mangling of foreign settings, and let ibus-typing-booster
figure out the optimal configuration given the presence of an OSK.

Previously backspace would only ever remove a single character left of
the cursor, regardless of selection.
This requires the application to correctly set the anchor position in
text_input::set_surrounding_text(), which currently only gtk4 seems to
do. When there is no selection or on other applications that always set
cursor = anchor, like gtk3 does, the behavior is not changed and still
only deletes one character.

Currently extensions can only be locked down completely by
restricting the `enabled-extensions` key via dconf.
This is too restrictive for environments that want to allow users
to customize their system with extensions, while still limiting
the set of possible extensions.
To fill that gap, add a new `allow-extension-installation` setting,
which restricts extensions to system extensions when disabled.
As the setting is mainly intended for locking down by system
administrators, there is no attempt to load/unload extensions
on settings changes.

Since we now propagate error types back to gnome-shell now, let's start
with showing a special error message in case the disk ran out of space,
which is probably the most typical error.

We'll be using hardware encoding for screencasts soon, so we'll likely see
more things go wrong in the future, including crashes of the whole
screencastService. To deal with this, we'll introduce logic to blocklist
certain recording pipelines in case of failure and also add some logic
to retry the recording automatically.
To allow for better messaging to the user in those failure cases, we want
to be aware in gnome-shell, what exactly the error in the recorder was.
So propagate the most common types of errors that can happen in the
ScreencastService to gnome-shell using the new DBusError module.

Generating the enums from a list of names means that developers
have to deduce the names of enum members themselves. That's more
important than a bit more convenience when adding a new enum, so
instead spell out the exported enums, and use the enums directly
when registering a domain.

We sometimes return custom D-Bus errors. Right now those errors
are ad-hoc, which means receivers don't have a proper way of
checking whether a thrown GLib.Error corresponds to a particular
remote error.
In order to change that, we should define proper error enums and
domains, and register them with GDBus, so that there is an automatic
mapping between D-Bus errors and GLib.Errors.
The new module doesn't export any domains or enums yet, but provides
internal tooling to make these exports more convenient.
