After porting the more complex cases - in particular those that
affect a module's API - we are left with straight-forward D-Bus
method calls that can be moved to promise-based wrappers in one
go.
For consistency, this also switches from Remote to Async where
the call result is ignored.

Introduce a new class, EventEmitter, which implements signal
handling for pure JavaScript classes. EventEmitter still
utilizes GJS' addSignalMethods internally.
EventEmitter allows static typechecking to understand the
structure of event-emitting JS classes and makes creating
child classes simpler.
The name 'EventEmitter' mirrors a common name for this pattern
in Node and in JS libraries.

Commit ca4f6e0123 was supposed to show the
"cellular-disabled" icon when wwan is disabled. For wwan, just like for
bluetooth wwan networks, we probably want this to include the "not
connected" state, because disconnecting from cellular service de-facto
means disabling it.
So switch the check to show the "cellular-disabled" icon to also use the
icon whether there's no active connection, not only when the wwan device
is turned off.

Start using the new methods to simplify signal cleanup. For now,
focus on replacing existing cleanups; in most cases this means
signals connected in the constructor and disconnected on destroy,
but also other cases with a similarly defined lifetime (say: from
show to hide).
This doesn't change signal connections that only exist for a short
time (say: once), handlers that are connected on-demand (say: the
first time a particular method is called), or connections that
aren't tracked (read: disconnected) at all.
We will eventually replace the latter with connectObject() as
well - especially from actor subclasses - but the changeset is
already big enough as-is :-)

We have made good progress on object literals as well, although there
are still a lot that use the old style, given how ubiquitous object
literals are.
But the needed reindentation isn't overly intrusive, as changes are
limited to the object literals themselves (i.e. they don't affect
surrounding code).
And given that object literals account for quite a bit of the remaining
differences between regular and legacy rules, doing the transition now
is still worthwhile.

If the finish function isn't specified, promisify will now try
to use the async name without '_async'/'_begin' suffix (if any)
and '_finish' appended.
Everything except IBus uses a variation of that pattern, so there's
quite a bit of boilerplate we get to remove…

We currently disable all network items on both the lock- and login
screen. While it makes sense to be very restrictive on the lock screen,
there are some (fringe) use cases for being more permissive on the
login screen (like remote home directories only accessible via VPN).
There's precedence with the power-off/restart actions to be less
restrictive on the login screen, and since we started respecting
the `network-control` polkit action, it's possible to restore the
old behavior if desired.

NetworkManager installs a `network-control` polkit action that can
be used to disallow network configuration, except that we happily
ignore it. Add it to the conditions that turn a network section
insensitive.

Setting up a connection for an Enterprise WPA(2) encrypted wireless
network requires Settings. That's not available when windows are
disabled via the session mode, so filter out affected entries.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1874>
The item launches the corresponding Settings panel when activated, which
doesn't work when windows are disabled by the session mode. Rather than
failing silently, turn the item insensitive.

The parameter to `ModalDialog.close(timestamp)` is optional. But when
invoked via the network dialog's Cancel button it was receiving an
implicit parameter value that's definitely not a timestamp:
```
[0x560f18af0c50 StButton.modal-dialog-linked-button:first-child hover ("Cancel")]
```
And as of today (or gjs >= 1.67.3) that's reported as an error:
```
JS ERROR: Error: Argument timestamp: value is out of range for uint32
popModal@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/main.js:638:12
popModal@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/modalDialog.js:206:14
close@resource:///org/gnome/shell/ui/modalDialog.js:179:14
```
and so you can't Cancel the dialog anymore.
Make sure `ModalDialog.close()` receives an `undefined` timestamp it
knows how to handle.

For more obscure network configurations, we need to launch the
corresponding Settings panel with additional parameters, so we
cannot simply launch the .desktop file.
However we can do better than spawning a command line: Control center
exposes an application action we can use instead, so the process is
launched with the appropriate activation environment and startup
notification support.

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!

xgettext gained some support for template strings, and no longer
fails when encountering '/' somewhere between backticks.
Unfortunately its support is still buggy as hell, and it is now
silently dropping translatable strings, yay. I hate making the
code worse, but until xgettext really gets its shit together,
the only viable way forward seems to be to not use template
strings in any files listed in POTFILES.

Since the last commit we set the gicon property of StIcon to NULL if an
empty string was given when setting the icon name, this means
`st_icon_get_icon_name()` will return NULL instead of an empty string.
When `getIndicatorIcon()` returns an empty string, the icon_name
property will now be set to NULL, so compare it to NULL here.

Since ES5, trailing commas in arrays and object literals are valid.
We generally haven't used them so far, but they are actually a good
idea, as they make additions and removals in diffs much cleaner.

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.

Clutter originally cluttered its namespace with key symbols, before
prefixing all symbols with KEY. We still use the unprefixed symbols
occasionally, replace them so mutter can drop the deprecated symbols.

Every since commit aa394754, StBoxLayout has supported ClutterActor's
expand/align properties in addition to the container-specific child
properties. Given that that's the only container left with a special
child meta, it's time to fully embrace the generic properties (and
eventually remove the child meta).

Remove the `this.actor = ...` and `this.actor._delegate = this` patterns in most

Uses interfaces when needed for making sure that multiple classes will implement
some required methods or to avoid redefining the same code multiple times.

As arrow functions have an implicit return value, an assignment of
this.foo = bar could have been intended as a this.foo === bar
comparison. To catch those errors, we will disallow these kinds
of assignments unless they are marked explicitly by an extra pair
of parentheses.
