dbusServices/extensions: Proxy Extensions API Similar to the previously added org.freedesktop.Notifications proxy, this exposes the org.gnome.Shell.Extensions API and forwards any request to the real implementation in gnome-shell. The motivation differs though: We want to be able to package the extension app as flatpak and distribute it separately, but the extension prefs dialog is hard to impossible to sandbox: - filenames need translating between host and sandbox, and we can only do that in some cases (serializing/deserializing extensions), but not others (extension settings that refer to files) - system extensions install their GSettings schemas in the system path; the best we can do there is assume a host prefix of /usr and set GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR in the flatpak (eeks) - extensions may rely on additional typelibs that are present on the host (for example because gnome-shell itself depends on them), but not inside the sandbox - unless we bundle all of gnome-shell's dependencies - if gjs/mozjs differ between host and sandbox, extensions must handle different runtimes for the extension and its prefs And all those issues occur despite a very permissive sandbox (full host filesystem access, full dconf access, full org.gnome.Shell access (including Eval()!)). This new service will give us an alternative place for handling the preference dialog: - it runs outside of gnome-shell process, so can open windows - it runs on the host, so the extension's prefs get to run in the same namespace as the extension itself That is, the service will provide portal-like functionality (albeit not using the org.freedesktop.portal.* namespace, as extension management is an inherently privileged operation). https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/1106

dbusServices/extensions: Split out prefs dialog We're about to make changes to the UI, so this seems to be a good time to split GUI and service code. Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2012>

dbusServices/extensions: Include Params module It's unused and was removed in commit a0467bf875, which broke extensions that rely on it in their preference widget. As the removal only happened post-3.36.0, add it back until we branch. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/2476

dbusServices/extensions: Split error page from window The error UI comprises the bits that are actually custom. Splitting them out from the off-the-shelf window makes it easier to replace the dialog with libadwaita's dedicated preference window.
