If one of these libraries breaks its GIR API in future, then upgrading
packages unrelated to gnome-shell might pull in the newer version,
causing gnome-shell to crash when it gets a newer GIR API that is
incompatible with its expectations. For example, this seems to be
happening in Debian testing at the moment, when GNOME Shell 41.4
imports GWeather and can get version 4.0 instead of the version 3.0 that
it expected.
Adding explicit API versions at the time the newer version is released
is too late, because that will still let the newer version of the GIR API
break pre-existing GNOME Shell packages. Prevent similar crashes in
future by making the desired versions explicit.
This is done for all third-party libraries except GLib, similar to the
common practice in Python code; if GLib breaks API, then that will be
a disruptive change to the whole GLib/GObject ecosystem, regardless.
Gvc, Meta, Shell, Shew, St are not included because they're private
(only exist in a non-default search path entry).
Clutter and Cogl *are* included, because we need to import the fork of
them that comes with Meta, as opposed to their deprecated standalone
versions.

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 started tracking all windows to make sure the assumption that any
window can be match to an app holds. It is not expected however to
ever represent OR windows in the UI, so it seems better to exclude
them from get_windows() instead of expecting everyone to filter the
return value themselves.
(The returned list still includes "uninteresting" windows like attached
dialogs, which can be important for cases like the correct MRU order in
alt-tab)

When neither the theme node itself nor any of its parents specifies
an explicit text direction, we default to aligning to the left.
That's a good default for LTR locales, but for RTL aligning to the
right is a better one.

If the timezone offset calculation in the World Clocks contains non-zero
minutes, then a decimal Hours value is being displayed. Limit the Hours value
to integers by using Math.floor().

On some hardware combinations the display can be known, then unknown again. Meaining that
when the update monitors function is called it will have a value, then be called again
setting this.primaryMonitor to null. If the timing is just right gnome shell will
loadBackground, then by the time the animation is ready the monitor will be gone,
thus methods will be called on a null value. This adds more checks for a valid
primary monitor, and wont play the animation until the system is idle AND has a valid
priamry monitor.

T_() is a convenience shortcut for looking up a string from the
locale defined by LC_TIME, but it isn't recognized as a gettext
keyword. To do that, we also have to wrap the string in N_() or
NC_().

It existed to fade out/in `nautilus-desktop` for the overview, but it only
ever worked for X11 sessions (`Meta.WindowType.DESKTOP`) and
`nautilus-desktop` no longer exists anyway.
While I had suggested extending it in the past (!1395), that work was
never finished and since then the DING extension has implemented its
own visibility toggling. There seems little value in keeping the old
fade logic around in gnome-shell. Removing it actually fixes a bug with
DING (https://launchpad.net/bugs/1965072).

Creating these default folders still doesn't work. After some
investigation I found that's because the template we use for
the path when creating the `child` `Gio.Settings` instance
results in a double slash - it comes out as e.g.
/org/gnome/desktop/app-folders//folders/Utilities/ . dconf does
not gracefully handle this as many other things that handle
paths do, it considers it a programmer error. It results in
error messages like:
dconf_changeset_set: assertion 'dconf_is_path (path, NULL)' failed
which is slightly confusing. Anyway, we fix it by removing a
slash from the template.

Since the ClutterGrab rework, grabbing properly emits crossing events.
StButtons take a ClutterGrab as soon as they are pressed, so pressing
the close StButton of the WindowPreview takes a grab and causes a
LEAVE+key-focus-out event getting sent to the WindowPreview. This in
turn makes us hide our overlay (which the StButton is part of). We
automatically ungrab ClutterGrabs when hiding actors, so the StButtons
grab now gets released again, key-focus and hover state are updated
again and we emit an ENTER event to the WindowPreview. The preview now
tries show its overlay again and things explode because we re-enter the
mapping machinery.
For the LEAVE event we can break this cycle by detecting the GRAB_NOTIFY
crossing event of our own StButton and not reacting to that.
We should do the same for the key-focus-out event, but these don't pass
context information like a GRAB_NOTIFY flag yet, so just check the
current grab actor here.
