Error reporting is useful when used interactively, but often undesirable
when used in scripts. Account for that with a common --quiet option,
which is more convenient than redirection stderr to /dev/null.

While sandboxing isn't a concern for the gnome-extensions command line
tool, using the Extensions proxy directly means that D-Bus methods are
called from the tool rather than gnome-shell, which allows the proxy
to auto-shutdown when done.

Some (newer?) GCC versions complain when a g_auto variable isn't
initialized when declared, even when the initialization is guaranteed
to happen before the variable is used or goes out of scope.

Now that we support extension updates, it may be useful to list
pending updates from the command line. It's easy enough to support,
so add a corresponding option to the list command.

After creating a new extension, we try to open the main source
file with the default handler, which fails when there is none.
But given that the extension was created successfully, don't treat
a missing handler as failure, and print the path to the new extension
instead.

The gnome-extensions tool code is really independent from the rest of the
code base, and could be used either as part of the gnome-shell build or as
stand-alone project (for example for the extension-ci docker image).
We can actually support both cases by moving the code to a subproject.
