Currently we have been using the vp8 codec because it was the best unencumbered codec at that time. With vp9 we now have a successor that leads to smaller
files at at the same video quality and has been supported by current browsers
for a while.
With the raise of hidpi and 4K displays we need a better codec that handles
those resolutions better, so switch to vp9.

The lookup table used by get_app_from_window_pid contained only pids of
apps launched by gnome-shell itself, but not pids of apps running before
gnome-shell was (re-)started. Also the pids in that table might not even
be the pid of the process that is actually showing the window if wrapper
scripts are used.
Instead use shell_window_tracker_get_app_from_pid which uses the pids
from the windows themselves.
This removes the only use of launched_pid_to_app which will be removed
in the following commit.
This fixes: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736527
g_dbus_proxy_new() (and library calls that wrap it) has an hardcoded
timeout of 25 seconds, which is insufficient for starting up e-s-r
in certain setups. Avoid a timeout error by starting the service
manually with a longer timeout before hand.
Also demote the error to a warning + exit failure instead of
a crash, to avoid triggering abrt reports.

Themes - namely the HighContrast one - may now request symbolic
icons rather than fullcolor ones. In order to have recoloring
work as expected in that case, we will need a theme node to pick
up colors from - using an StIcon instead of manually loading a
texture from the cache gives us that for free, so do that.

GTK+ added support for a -gtk-icon-style property in themes to
enforce a particular icon style. Do the same for shell themes
with an -st-icon-style property, with the same set of possible
values as the GTK+ variant:
'requested' - use symbolic or fullcolor icon depending on the
icon name (default)
'regular' - enforce fullcolor icons
'symbolic' - enforce symbolic icons
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740447
The split between st_texture_cache_load_gicon() and load_gicon_with_colors()
no longer makes any sense, so just move the code into the public method.

Using a separate property to show when the application is busy rather
than cramming it into the state property makes the code clearer. In most
places we only care if an app is running or not, not whether it is
actually busy.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736492
This simplifies the code and fixes a race where an application could
call g_application_mark_busy() before the shell subscribed to change
notifications on the application's busy state.

The window actor shouldn't have been picked since it has an empty
input shape, but bugs in mutter weren't properly interpreting that.
Since the Wayland restructure, the MetaWindowActor isn't actually
reactive anymore, it's the MetaSurfaceActorX11, so this code isn't
doing anything.
It's implemented similar to the padding property, but instead of taking
into account the margin values at drawing time in node-drawing, we set
the clutter actor margins in StWidget when the style is computed.
In the case that a CSS margin is not specified, we don't to set a value
of 0 to the clutter actor margin. In this manner it allows to use
Clutter margin values set in the code. However, the margins that are set
both in the code and in the CSS on the same side, the result is
unpredictable.
We avoid to set the clutter actor margin values to 0 if there's no CSS
margin values defined, so we still allow clutter actors to use margin
set in the code.

GTK+ added a new PolicyType which currently triggers compiler warnings
about unhandled values in switch statements. We also have a use case for
it already, so add support for the new policy type.

We commonly mark strftime format strings for translation to account
for date/time representations without an existing strftime shortcut
("Yesterday %H%p"). As those translations are looked up according to
the locale defined by LC_MESSAGES, while the conversion characters
themselves are resolved according to LC_TIME, the result can be
rather odd when mixing locales ("Den 27. January"). The correct
solution would be to install translations for format strings in
the LC_TIME catalogue and look them up with dcgettext(), but we
don't have the infrastructure to do that easily. Work around this
by adding a helper method that looks up a string in LC_MESSAGES
using the locale defined by LC_TIME and use that to translate
format strings, which has the same result.

The pointer to ->accessible was cleared too early in dispose, which
resulted in another accessible object being created when the actor
was removed from its parent in clutter_actor_dispose(). Use a
weak reference instead to clear the ->accessible pointer.

Wayland applications don't tend to have very useful WM Class properties,
as GTK+ isn't very good at picking an appropriate application ID. While
we should likely fix GTK+ to pick a better app ID, we do have the
existing gtk_shell for more accurate information. The only problem is
that the gtk_surface is set after the MetaWindow is constructed, and
we're not listening for changes on the GTK+ application ID.
Listen to changes on the GTK+ application ID to fix app tracking for
most GTK+ applications under Wayland.
We currently allow infinite number of screenshot requests to be active at
the same time, which can "dos" the system and cause OOM.
So fail subsequent requests for the same sender when a screenshot operation
is already running.

These keybindings are well-established on the CLI (e.g. "kill-line"
and "unix-line-discard" in readline(3)), and adding support for them
is cheap ...

All current code assumes that the list of window actors corresponds to the
list of windows; however as the list returned by meta_get_window_actors()
now includes actors during the destroy animation, that assumption breaks.
Eventually we should make everyone move to a more appropriate API, but
for now make it work again by returning a filtered list of "good"
window actors.

Performance testing was producing inconsistent values at different
times in the day since the GNOME default background is animated and
sometimes has a single layer, and sometimes two blended layers.
So we have consistent numbers, install a simple animated background
with GNOME Shell that has 40-year long transition ending in 2030,a
and set an environment variable in gnome-shell-perf-tool so that the
background is override with that background. (The background depends
on files installed by gnome-backgrounds; we assume that the person
running performance tests is doing so within the scope of a full
GNOME install.)
