A PolicyKit Authentication Agent is a construct used to authenticate
one or more identities. See the PolicyKit documentation for more
details on authentication agents and how PolicyKit works:
http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/polkit/
Since gjs does not support subclassing a GObject class from Javascript
code, we bring in a native class to bridge the VFuncs to GObject
signals. Additionally, this native class also queues up authentication
requests so the user of the native class only has to deal with a
single outstanding request at any one time.
The file js/ui/polkitAuthenticationAgent.js introduces a singleton
that listens for authentication requests via the native class. This
singleton uses the PolkitAgent machinery to do the actual heavy-weight
lifting required for authentication (essentially a PAM conversation).
We currently don't allow the user to pick the identity to be
authenticated.

This basically:
* Checks a11y configuration properties
* Checks if clutter has a11y enabled
* Loads atk-bridge
It also ensure proper NO_GAIL and NO_AT_BRIDGE values on gnome-shell
startup script

A key for 12hr/24hr clock format has been added to gsettings-desktop-schemas,
so use that instead of the one from the shell clock schema.
As the setting can be controlled from the Date and Time panel of
gnome-control-center now, drop the temporary preference dialog
as well.

We were going to great effort to include the normal directories in the
GJS search path and the code to to do this broke recently when
jsdir and jsnativedir were moved to gjs-internals-1.0.pc. However, it
was actually unnecessary since the standard directories are appended
to the default path.
(We continue to use a GNOME_SHELL_JS envvar separate from GJS_PATH
for the Shell to enable the somewhat unlikely case where someone wants
to invoke the shell specifying a GJS_PATH.)

Add a "gicon" property so that a GIcon can be used instead of an
icon name, while still getting icon recoloring from the theme.
Also include a compatibility wrapper in libshell until GJS has
support for interface static methods.

ST makes use of GTK+ for input methods and for icon themes; therefore
we have need to initialize GTK+ in order to test these parts of Clutter.
Instead of LD_PRELOADING our module, use a separately compiled executable
that links to the UI components in GNOME Shell, initializes Clutter and
GTK+ and hooks them together.
Getting all the symbols from St and the GUI components exported for
use via GJS requires a bit of contortion: we need to actually link the
St convenience library into a shared library and link the executable
to that since there is no way with libtool to take a convenience library
and put all its symbols into an executable --whole-archive style.

The library is introspected, and should not require using
Pulseaudio directly.

The actor emitted by ShellTrayManager is now ShellTrayIcon, a subclass
of ShellGtkEmbed which has several properties on it which are (or will
soon be) useful to the shell.
Part of the rearranging to use ShellTrayIcon means that we now show
the ShellEmbeddedWindow before creating its ShellGtkEmbed, which
requires a few modifications to ShellEmbeddedWindow (notably, telling
it at construct time what stage it will be drawn on, since it needs to
know that before it has a ShellGtkEmbed now).

As of 1.4, ClutterGLXTexturePixmap is identical to
ClutterX11TexturePixmap (with the differences having been moved into
the cogl layer). So make ShellGtkEmbed use the (introspected) X11
version, which then allows us to make the instance and class structs
public as well.

* Use --warn-all, --warn-error
* Fix various broken gtk-doc
* Drop unused shell_get_event_related
* For header defines, we currently require them to end in _H to be skipped
* Drop the no-longer-necessary fix-meta-rectangle.py hack
* Move to the convention of using -private.h for headers that are,
well, private.
* Add shell-wm-private.h
g-ir-scanner is currently buggy and confuses the Gdk.Rectangle alias
with MetaRectangle. Since this is moderately hard to fix in
gobject-introspection and the fix would conflict with in-progress
changes, work around by doing a 'sed job' on the generated Meta.gir.

Use GSettings for all Shell configuration. GConf is kept to read
configuration from external programs (Metacity, Nautilus and Magnifier),
but ShellGConf is removed because it's mostly useless for the few calls
we still have. Also get rid of unused GConf code in ShellAppSystem.
A basic GConf schema is still used to override Metacity defaults and
configure Magnifier in a system-wide fashion. GConf is also used as
GSettings backend via the GSETTINGS_BACKEND environment variable.
All of this will be removed when these programs have been ported
to GSettings and able to use dconf.
GLib 2.25.9 is required. Schemas are converted to the new XML format,
and compiled at build time in data/ so that the Shell can be run from
the source tree. This also requires setting the GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR
environment variable both when running installed or from source tree,
in src/gnome-shell.in and src/gnome-shell-clock-preferences.in.

Nothing uses ShellOverflowList any more, so remove it. (Even if we
want that sort of functionality again later, we'd want it to be
StWidget-based, and with a name less likely to be confused with
StOverflowBox.)

First, we were passing an incorrect timestamp to
meta_display_focus_the_no_focus_window - fix that.
The invocation of set_focus_app to the started app there couldn't
really work, because (if the above call had worked) we'd get the
X reply *after* the started app.
What we need to untangle here is the distinction that's now made in
ShellApp between _STATE_STARTING and _STATE_RUNNING. A nice way to
start doing this is to rebase ShellWindowTracker to only be concerned
with app states. Concretely, the current "has windows implies
running" logic now lives just inside shell-app.c.
Rename the app-running-changed signal to be app-state-changed. This
will ultimately be useful so that inside the panel, we can track
the last started app.

The preference dialog for the panel clock does not set its gettext
domain, so it's not translated even if though translations are
already available.
Fix by setting the domain in the GtkBuilder file and binding the
domain to the locale directory.

Update the GNOME Shell version to 2.31.2, and make corresponding
updates to dependencies:
clutter => 1.2.8
mutter => 2.31.2
gobject-introspection => 0.6.11
gjs => 0.7
ShellPerfLog provides a way for different parts of the code to
record information for subsequent analysis and interactive
exploration. Events exist of a timestamp, an event ID, and
arguments to the event.

Adds the ability to create one or more zoom regions that show magnified or
enhanced views of the desktop. The magnifier provides options for:
* magnification factor,
* four mouse tracking modes common to screen magnifiers,
* positioning the magnified view in one of four screen location, or full screen,
* crosshairs to accentuate the position of the mouse,
* user preferences persistence via GConf (schemas in
.../data/gnome-shell.schemas).
* a DBus API to allow other processes to drive the magnifier as a service.

To replace all calls to deprecated code, GTK+ 2.20 is required - add
some basic compatibility code, so that is still possible to build the
shell with GTK+ 2.18 when not using -DGSEAL_ENABLE.

Brute force merge these two by essentially replacing St.TextureCache
with a (renamed) Shell.TextureCache.
One function was added for convenience, namely "st_texture_cache_load_file_simple".
St.TextureCache had a function to load a texture from a filename, and it
returned NULL on error but only half the callers actually checked this. This
function is better.

Since shell-slicer.h includes st.h, and that includes
<st/*.h>, we need to add -I $(srcdir) to the command line when
running g-ir-scanner to generate Shell-1.0.gir.
Previously we were hacking out the vertical scrollbar, this patch
allow us to sanely say in which directions we want to scroll.
Note this patch intentionally changes St to depend on GTK+ in the
API. I believe this is a correct long term change where we should
view St as co-evolving with GTK+ rather than replacing or paralleling.
