This patch ensures the following notifications behavior:
- Urgent notifications that have long title or banner text are auto-expanded
correctly.
- Single-line notifications that have _expandNotification() called (e.g.
because the user mouses over to them), are treated as expanded, which means
they get fully expanded if they are updated with more content and the user
can escape them.
- The position of expanded notifications is updated when they are updated.
- Notification banner is shown again on the first line if it can fully fit
there after a notification is updated, even if it was previously hidden
because the notification was expanded and the old banner did not fully fit.
- New notifications are immediately hidden if the user mouses away from them.
- If a new notification is updated while it is shown, we extend the time it
will be shown.
- If a new notification is updated while it is hiding, we stop hiding it and
show it again.
- If a summary notification is updated while it is hiding, we let it finish
hiding and show a new notification with the updated information.
Implementation details:
- Single-line notifications now have 4px bottom padding instead of 8px, which
means that their height matches the tray height, they are fully shown in the
banner mode, and don't pop out by 4px when the notification is expanded.
- Notification keeps a flag that indicates whether it is expanded, updates
its expanded look when it is updated, and emits an 'expanded' signal
indicating that its layout has possibly changed. The message tray connects
to this 'expanded' signal when it is showing a notification in the expanded
state and updates the position of the notification accordingly when this
signal is received so that the notification is fully shown. This is better
than connecting to 'notify::height' signal on the notification bin, since
it results in fewer callbacks.

The Shell is the only user of the magnifier, so there's no
reason to keep using GConf for its settings. Since it's a
session-wide tool, use a distinct schema,
org.gnome.accessibility.magnifier, stored in
/desktop/gnome/accessibility/magnifier just like before.
Put these settings in a separate schema file for clarity.
Old enums in GConf were stored as integers, we now use the
facilities provided by GSettings to save them as strings,
and convert them to integers automatically thanks to the
mapping stored in the schemas. Remove hard-coded default values,
which we can get from the schemas.

Return a DND.DragMotionResult constant from delegate _handleDragMotion
methods as well as the existing return value from the drag monitor method dragMotion.

Expanding notifications automatically just because they popped up where
the pointer is positioned distracts the user. It can also lead to a behavior
that is surprising to the user by, for example, making the user's input
switch to the notification's text entry box.
It is possible to expand a notification that popped up over the pointer
by mousing away from it and then mousing back in immediately.

We used to keep long titles ellipsized when a notification was expanded,
which was a bug. We now show them fully by line wrapping them.
Based on the original patch from Steven Van Bael.

We used 'bannerBody' flag to differentiate the case when we move the banner to
the body when the notification is expanded from the one when we don't do that
and only use the custom content set for the notification, as is the case for
Telepathy notifications. We also always cleared the content of the notification
on update when bannerBody was set to true.
Flag named 'customContent' reflects the use case for it more clearly. The
comments that accompany it were also updated and improved.
We now always add the banner text as the first element in the expanded
notification unless 'customContent' flag is set to true.
If the 'body' parameter is specified, we use it in addition to the banner
text. The earlier version of the code had a bug that resulted in the 'body'
parameter not being set only in the case when the 'bannerBody' was set to
true and the banner text had newlines in it.

The banner should not be appearing briefly when we are hiding the notification.
For that, we should only restore the opacity of the banner in popInCompleted()
when we are done hiding the notification. We do need to restore the opacity
in case the notification is updated and is shown in the banner mode again.
The banner should not be appearing briefly when we are showing the notification
in the summary mode. For that, we should not use the animation time to fade out
the banner in popOut() for summary notifications.
These two problems were particularly visible when the ANIMATION_TIME was increased.

In Clutter 1.2, clutter_event_get_keysym() ignored the state of the
Shift key. In 1.4, it does not, so we have to adjust our comparisons
accordingly.

The old calculation did not take into account the icon and the spacing
between columns. This resulted in the notifications that had a slightly
longer title/banner combination than could actually fit not being expandable.
The new calculation is done in _bannerBoxAllocate() so
that we don't need to hardcode which other elements are present.

A Source needs exactly one summary icon (which in the case of a
trayicon-based source won't even be just an image), but possibly many
notification icons, which may vary for successive notifications
(particularly in the case of NotificationDaemon notifications). So
differentiate these cases in the API.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627303
The tray itself does not actually need them, and to make status icon
sources work correctly the NotificationDaemon will need to be tracking
its sources by two separate IDs, so the existing system won't work.
Also remove MessageTray.removeSourceByApp(), which is
NotificationDaemon-specific, and implement the functionality in
notificationDaemon.js instead.

The current search system uses the OR operator to concatenate search
terms. While results which are matched multiple times sort before
other matches, it is almost guaranteed that adding an additional term
to the search increments the number of results, which is rather
surprising.

When calling Notification.update, reuse the previous _bannerBox and
related labels (only changing the label content and relayouting), so
that the opacity set on popOut is preserved. As a consequence, updating
an opened notification no longer shows (or flicker) the banner at the
top.

The start date is shifted by a week if the day number of the month's
first day is smaller than the week start's day number. Probably the
only real world examples are months starting on a Sunday with locales
using Monday as start of week.

It is not obvious that only the icon is clickable to activate the
default action - in fact, with the area being that tiny, many don't
even know that notifications can be clicked.
Just extend the clickable area to the whole notification.

Adds class PopupSwitchMenuItem, which is a two-state switch similar
to those in system status indicators mockups. Also adds class Switch,
which represents the switch itself, in case it is useful somewhere
else.

In addition to already grabbing focus in the summary notifications,
we also want to grab focus in the new notifications when the user
hovers over them and expands them.
The notifications that expand automatically will only get focus once
the user hovers over them. The notifications that don't expand will
never grab focus because they don't need it.
Make sure that we toggle the way we grab focus when switching between
the overview and the main mode. This is necessary because, unlike
summary notifications that pop down when the user moves between the two
modes, new notifications keep being shown as long as the user hovers
over them or until they time out.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617224
Because clicking on the summary item to have it display its notification
is a more deliberate action than hovering, we can now grab focus in that
notification. This makes chat notifications in the summary more convenient
to use because you don't need to click on the text entry there.
We pop down the notification when the user clicks anywhere outside of it,
triggers the overview, or the run dialog.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617224
This ensures that the summary appears when we are showing a new
notification and switch to the overview at the same time.
Another effect of this patch is that the summary is shown if the
user moves the mouse to the bottom right corner while a notification
is being shown, which is ok.
This patch adds the method "removeMenu" to PopupMenuManager, to allow
for removal of menus after they're inserted. In order to do this, it
needs to store along with the menu all the relevant signal connections,
that are disconnected when the menu is removed.
Also adds a parameter "position" to "addMenu", so that menus can added
in arbitrary order (in particular to reintroduce those which were removed).
This patch is intended towards dynamic menu users, like extensions for
application lists, docks, sidebars showing recent documents or favourites,
as well as advanced system tray implementations.

In GSettings, a change notification is generated immediately from context of the _set() call.
In GConf, The "value_changed" signal is emitted whenever the server
notifies your client program that a value has changed in the database (100% NOT from context of the _set() call).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624296
We need to only connect to 'action-invoked' on notification once
when the notification is created. We were accumulating callbacks
otherwise, which resulted, for example, in the Rhythmbox skipping
through multiple tracks when the 'Next' button was hit.
Always be sure to destroy the notification when its source is
destroyed, which is the case when an action is invoked.
Note that in the future, we might not want to destroy the source
for some notifications when an action is invoked. For example,
it makes sense to keep Rhythmbox in the tray while the music is
playing and allow the user to use the controls from the summary
notification too.
Solved by splitting the base class (PanelMenuButton) in a separate
module, ui.panelMenu, which is meant to hold also other reusable
button classes.

The spinner animation moving from left-to-right to indicate a starting
application changes its direction on reaching the end of the movement.
Instead, keep the spinner at the right of the app name until startup
has finished.

We should not be showing the cursor in the search entry in the overview
if the user's input will be appearing elsewhere, such as in the run dialog,
in the Looking Glass console, or in the notification's response field.
"text-align" allows setting the alignment of text, with respect to
other lines and allocated space, without requiring a reference to
the ClutterText (which is private for most widgets).
If not specified, all text is left-aligned.
