415563dc6e Add a FocusApp method to org.gnome.Shell
This method, which accepts a .desktop filename, is used to highlight
a specific application in the overview, for example because it has
just been created or installed.

70da558802 overview: Add coverPane to stack instead of BoxLayout
The event catcher that covers the entire primary monitor during
transitions is currently inside a BoxLayout, relying in its
odd support for fixed position actors.
We already have a proper stack widget in place, move it there.

f0113c5ff5 Overview: use a normal chrome actor to handle events during XDND
Instead of using the input mode, when the overview is not modal
it should use a Chrome-tracked actor, that is added to the input
region. Because the overview always takes pointer input when
visible, the actor is added at startup, and it is shown and hidden
as needed.

434f1edb25 overview: Add focusSearch() method and export it over DBus
Some keyboard spot a dedicated search key, which gnome-settings-daemon
currently handles by spawning gnome-search-tool. It makes a lot of
sense to promote the Shell's integrated search feature instead, so
expose an appropriate DBus method g-s-d can use.

36a7429aa0 overview: Try to do the right thing related to XDnD
Rather than expose a dizzying array of methods related to managing
state that require infecting every user of the overview methods, try
to do the sensible and smart thing internally. Now, the overview
itself tracks when XDND drags start, and simply calling show, hide or
toggle while an XDnD drag is in effect will show the overview, and
will only take the grab until after the XDND drag ends.

5679e6b3a9 layout: Construct the primary monitors's hot corner, too
This cleans up the code considerably, and makes it so that
one path creates all hot corners for all monitors. Why this
wasn't done originally, I have no clue...

The one complication is debouncing if the button and hot corner
are triggered in rapid succession, so we just move this tracking
to the overview.

030e6aa507 Fix overview sizing with multimonitor
Previously, the overview BoxLayout was sized and positioned explicitly
using the primary monitor coordinates, as its parent was at 0,0 and
with a fixed layout manager. Now we use a bin layout, so we need to
position and size the stack actor, and set the overview boxlayout to
expand.
Take also the occasion to use a MonitorConstraint instead of handling
position and size manually.

cca008b73c overview: Move dash to a separate layer
We generally want view content centered, in particular where the
view itself is symmetrical. So move the dash to a separate layer
and use a placeholder to account for its size when showing the
window picker, which is the only view where it doesn't make sense
to center the content.

b9dcbd9d33 overview: Use the new main actor in show/hide transitions
Commit 43ed66cf26 changed the toplevel overview actor, so it
makes sense to change the show/hide transitions to use that instead
of the existing group, to avoid elements layered on top of the
group being excluded from the transitions.

df0f03d831 overview: Keep open when a Control key is held
It is useful at times to perform several actions that would usually
close the overview (for instance launching an application) at once.
Currently we allow this by dragging items to a workspace rather than
just clicking it, but it's an odd metaphor with its own set of
problems.
Introduce an alternative approach (inspired by file selection in
file managers) by keeping the overview open if a Control key is
held down.

c495ff8ad8 overview: Expose scroll-events
Using the scroll wheel in the window picker should switch workspaces.
As the picker doesn't have a visible boundary though, it makes sense
to accept scroll-event for the entire overview area. Rather than
making the overview's main actor public, expose scroll-events via
a signal.

Account for the search entry space at the bottom (the former message
tray clone) individually in each side control, instead of packing

14fb51e6d7 overview: Fix stuck grabs when mashing the overlay-key
When pressing the overlay key three times, things went like this:

  * show(), push a modal
  * hide(), will pop a modal after hiding is done
  * show(), push a modal

Thus, when the showing is done, and then it activated the hiding,
it popped one modal, but not the other. This patch changes things
to be:

  * show(), push a modal
  * hide(), will pop a modal after hiding is done
  * hide(), no-op

That is, mashing the overlay-key when it's showing will always make
it hide, not mashing an odd number of times.

e00eb06f66 overview: Handle sessionMode.hasOverview changes
Currently we assume that either the initial sessionMode will have
the overview or none of the pushed modes - starting without the
overview and pushing a mode that adds it fails spectacularly.
However this is exactly what we are going to do when loading external
modes asynchronously - we'll initially use the default mode while
the modes are loading, and switch to the mode passed on the command
line when finished. So make sure that the overview UI gets initialized
properly in that case.
