Explode the regex onto multiple lines, and add comments explaining the
pieces. Also, change ()s to (?:)s (non-capturing groups) where
appropriate, and replace the UTF-8 characters with \u escapes so that
they actually work.

In commit 9bd22dc0, I introduced an API to load an arbitrary
.desktop file, not necessarily from the menu path. It turns
out this function was broken because it created ShellApp instances
that were *different* from ones that were cached normally.
As far as I can tell, we didn't initially use it. Then later
Util.spawnDesktop was created which used this function.
Remove this broken function and all callers; if we're loading
.desktop files from *outside* the menu path, we can look at
readding.
This patch also kills off Util.spawnDesktop in favor of callers
talking to ShellAppSystem directly, now that the latter reports
errors.

Move the "system notification error" handling out of
util.js, and add it to ShellGlobal so we can start
calling it from across the codebase better (including
C).

Adds an implementation of nm-applet in javascript. Uses the new
introspection from NetworkManager, and temporarily requires
nm-applet to be running for the secret service.
Features a renewed interface, with each device controllable through
a switch, which if toggled off disconnects, and if toggled on
connects to the most recently used valid connection. More esoteric
features like creation of ad-hoc networks have been moved to the
control center panel.

Commit a65a0f03d4 changed the literal RegExp to a string-based
RegExp(). As backslashes are treated specially inside strings,
translating an expression as /\s/ to '\s' results in a faulty
regex of /s/, so escape backslashes where necessary.

Since we have to use pkill, kludgily, for the right combination of
portability and featurefulness, put the code in one place rather than
duplicating it everywhere.

Add Util.spawn, Util.spawnCommandLine, and Util.spawnDesktop for
spawning a command/argv/.desktop file in the background, automatically
handling errors via MessageTray.SystemNotificationSource(), and
Util.trySpawn, Util.trySpawnCommandLine, and Utils.trySpawnDesktop
that don't do automatic error handling (but do at least clean up the
error message in the exception a bit).
Update various other bits of code around the shell to use the new
methods.

Rename imports.misc.utils to imports.misc.util for more consistency
(eg, with shell-util).
Also, use the string-based RegExp() constructor rather than a RegExp
literal, since the literal is extremely difficult to parse correctly,
and confuses emacs and probably other editors and thus messes up
autoindentation, etc.
