We have made good progress with transitioning to the new style,
to the point where we can complete it with a final push.
Start with changing the remaining places that still use double
quotes.

console.log() is implemented with structured logging, and as we
set an appropriate log domain, it's identical to the custom function
bar the custom fields with extension data.
Few people know about those custom fields, and adding them comes
at a cost, as we end up producing and parsing a stacktrace on
every log() call.
It therefore seems appropriate to drop the custom function, and
turn the global log() symbol into a simple convenience alias for
console.log().
If it turns out that people do miss the custom fields, we can add
an alternative to ExtensionUtils.

Environment variables aren't the best option to pass parameters
to a process (wouldn't it be "fun" if SHELL_PERF_MODULE appeared
in a regular user session?).
Instead, use a (hidden) --automation-script command line flag to
specify a script file that should be used to drive an automated
session.
As a side effect, the script no longer has to be relative to the
main module itself, so it will be possible to run scripts that
aren't bundled with the shell sources.

The perf scripts that can be used to script the gnome-shell UI
for testing are sufficiently separate from the rest of the code
base to allow porting them to ESM modules before the rest of
the code base.

Whether or not animations should be enabled depends on various
factors, some of which may change at runtime. We therefore
track changes, and sync the setting by calling inhibit/uninhibit
as necessary.
Except that we never actually record the new state, so when animations
are disabled, we end up inhibiting them every time
the setting is synced, whoops.

This is meant to let perf tests initialize themselves earlier than they
would otherwise run.
This allows them to setup the necessary dependencies, e.g. create
test monitors or similar actions.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2623>
When we're running in e.g. CI, or in a virtual machine without hardware
acceleration, and we actually want to enable animations despite the
potential performance implications, change the AnimationsSettings to
only inhibit if we're a XVNC instance or not hardware accelerated if
--force-animations wasn't passed.
Still inhibit animations if there is a remote desktop session that
explicitly disables animations.

If we want to run with the welcome screen showing, it should be done so
explicitly. Hide it if there is a perf test running for now, so that
what we test is what is expected to be tested.
We also don't want to show the root user warning, since we'll be running
as root in the CI containers.

The logging function cannot be asynchronous, so move the override
into main.js where ExtensionUtils can be imported at the top level.
Importing ExtensionUtils in environment.js at the top level is not
possible because it would import Main prematurely.

MetaWindow.move_to_monitor() can no longer be assumed to have updated
the monitor on return, as under wayland, if the move involves a size
change, the monitor state will only be updated after the new size has
been synced with the client.
If that happens, trying to change the workspace of the moved window
fails, as it is still considered on-all-workspaces until it leaves
the secondary monitor.
It's possible to work around this by waiting for the window to actually
enter the requested monitor. That's finicky enough to warrant a helper
funtion, so add one.

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…

- move all icons to the icons directory
- rename some icons to be more meaningful
- put all icons on a resource sheet
- update references to icon name changes
- deprecate icons for those in standard set

All callers have been updated to keep this handle to identify their
own grab.
Also, optionally use the windowing state to determine whether
the grab is suitable for the specific uses. This removes the need
to trying to grab twice in the places where we settle for a keyboard
grab.

MetaContext:unsafe-mode was added as a debugging tool to temporarily
remove restrictions on privileged APIs. But as it turns out, there
are now extensions that toggle the property permanently. Right now
none of them are malicious (as far as I can see), but it's still a
bad idea and should be discouraged.
Do this with a notification that warns the user when unsafe mode is
enabled non-interactively (i.e. via looking glass), and hopefully
also clarifies what the weird lock icon in the top bar is about.

We only want to show the welcome dialog in the user session, not
on the login screen or during initial setup. We currently achieve
that by explicitly checking for those mode names, but there are
other modes like gnome-classic where the dialog is equally un-
helpful. Support those cases by adding a session mode property
that determines whether the welcome dialog should be enabled,
so that modes can opt in or out of the feature themselves.
(Both the 'gdm' and 'initial-setup' modes are based on the
'restricted' mode, so this change does not affect them)

Move the screencasting into a separate D-Bus service process, using
PipeWire instead of Clutter API. The service is implemented in
Javascript using the dbusService.js helper, and implements the same API
as was done by screencast.js and the corresponding C code.

When a modal that's not on top of the modalActorFocusStack gets popped,
we shift the focus stack as described in popModal() to ensure the chain
remains correct. That however destroys the association of a modal actor
and its prevFocus actor on the focus stack, because the prevFocus actors
are now moved to different entries of the stack.
Now when a prevFocus actor gets destroyed, we don't handle that case
correctly and search for the modal actor that was associated with the
prevFocus actor before the stack was shifted, which means we end up
unsetting the wrong prevFocus actor.
So fix that and search the stack for the prevFocus actor which is being
destroyed instead to unset the correct entry.
Thanks to Florian Müllner for figuring out the actual issue and
proposing this fix.

The session mode determines whether the screen casting should work or
not, but until now only dealt with the built in screen cast, not the
ones using PipeWire. Add the newly added API for inhibiting remote
access when the session mode says screencasts are not allowed.

As of mozjs68 (gjs-1.64) `globalThis` is recommended over `window` and
it makes more sense in this context anyways. Migrate the few instances
of `window` we use and adjust the eslint configuration.
`window` will continue to resolve to `globalThis`, so this won't affect
extensions or other downstream users.

Filter the apps shown on the desktop and in search results according to
whether they are blacklisted by the user’s parental controls.
This supports dynamically updating the filter during the user’s session.
This adds an optional dependency on libmalcontent. If that’s unavailable, no
parental controls filtering will occur.

During the shell initialization we call the (deprecated) function to
override the Desktop environment in Gio DesktopAppInfo to make sure that
applications are correctly shown (as per commit b2fbf5a2), however this
might break the cases in which $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP is already set and
contains GNOME (given that is now a list).
In Ubuntu this is in fact set to: ubuntu:GNOME.
Now, if an application contains NotShowIn=ubuntu, the key will be ignored by
the shell, and the application is still listed everywhere.
So, override the DesktopAppInfo desktop environment only in the case that
the current desktop is not already GNOME.
At the current date I think we could just safely get rid of this override at
all, but there could be still cases where it still might be useful, like when
running as nested in some other environment, so keeping it.

We now warn on startup if screen locking isn't available, however for
users who choose not to use GDM or logind, repeating the warning on
each login is more annoying than helpful.
Instead, limit the warning to the first login on which the screen lock
became unavailable. That way the notification will still serve the
intended purpose of informing the user, but without being perceived
as nagging.

At least for the time being, this looks like the easiest option to
launch the service:
- we could add a systemd unit, but then we'd need to update the
RequiredComponents in the fallback session definition as well,
making it necessary for gnome-shell, gnome-shell-extensions and
gnome-session to be updated to 3.36.1 in lockstep
- autostart is problematic as it would make gnome-shell conflict
with other notification daemons; also autostart is most useful
with automatic shutdown, which would require tracking signal
subscriber to determine when the service is unused

Along the lines of `styleSheetName`, a session mode may want to provide its
own gresource file, so make this possible via a `themeResourceName` session
mode parameter, defaulted to gnome-shell-theme.gresource
