Iain Lane 9ab35786f6 theme: Search in versioned directories
We support third party themes, via the "stylesheetName" property of a
mode's json files. However, our external CSS API is not completely
stable. If a third party theme wants to work on multiple gnome-shell
versions - for example because it is shipped as a Flatpak or a Snap - it
is not possible to ensure that a theme corresponding to the running
gnome-shell version is loaded.

GTK+ loads themes from versioned directories, search backwards from the
current version. Let's do the same in gnome-shell too. Then a downstream
theme can be shipped in $datadir/gnome-shell/3.28/theme/.

We keep searching all of the current paths. Additionally, the default
case where we look for the 'gnome' theme as a resource in the binary
continues to be the default so there are no additional lookups for users
of this theme.
