The IBusInputContext currently seems to be a bit sloppy wrt propagating
the current state to engines after those are changed, this results in
engines possibly ending with purpose/hint/etc that do not actually
correspond to the current state.
Ensure this state is cleared on unfocus of our IBusInputContext, so
that the next time the input method receives an input focus, the new
state makes it all the way to the currently active engine.
Fixes situations in the GDM/lock screen password entry that IBus
would miss the PASSWORD hint set on the StEntry, and let passwords
be fed to engines.

When propagating keys from the OSK, we usually feed these directly to
the IBusInputContext and let the IM handle the effects of this virtual
key event (which may also include feeding a key event back to us).
But these functions may also return a FALSE value if the key was "let
through" by the IM, which means the ball is in our yard again, and
we are responsible of letting this event get to its destination.
If that happens, just fall through, so the string is committed to
the client as an UTF-8 string, or propagated through keyboard events.

This mode changes the current IBus engine to ibus-typing-booster
under the rug (i.e. no changes in keyboard status menu) for any
XKB engine selected.
In order to make it useful for the currently selected language,
the typing-booster dictionary is changed to the current XKB
layout language. And since the OSK has its own emoji panel,
typing-boosters own emoji completion is disabled.
These changes only apply as long as the OSK panel is shown,
reverting to the original engine and typing-booster configuration
after it is hidden. This in theory also caters for users that
do have ibus-typing-booster enabled as an input source.
The final effect is text prediction for the language that is
being typed, according to the OSK layout, given that
ibus-typing-booster and the relevant hunspell dictionaries are
used.

This action will replace CLUTTER_KEY_Backspace emission for
the OSK backspace key. Following the available mockups, implement
different modes of operation:
- Single tap deletes a single character
- Long tap starts deleting characters one by one
- Longer tap switches to word-by-word deletion
This is made possible via the input method surrounding text,
inspecting the string to look the previous char/word position
backwards, and relies on IM focus providing enough context.
Since deleting text and getting surrounding text are both
async operations, we make one happen after the other, until
the button is released.

Newer versions of IBus (> 1.5.26) have the IBUS_CAP_OSK capability
which can be used to hint the active IM about an OSK driving input as
opposed to a physical keyboard. This may be used by IMs to tweak their
behavior to suit OSKs better.
Add the GNOME Shell side handling for this capability, and toggle it
on whenever the OSK is visible.
Since this is a far too new enum value and we don't want such new
IBus dependency, this change plays fast and loose with JS guarantees,
since a logical OR with an undefined value results in the other operand
unmodified it will work for older versions where the capability does not
exist and thus we want nothing extra enabled.

Since IBus does not provide this information right away, we
so far cannot do much about providing a truthful anchor position
for the preedit text. But with the Mutter API in place it will
be up to this object to do so in the future.

This signal announces the preferred commit mode of the preedit text when
the input context is reset. Keep this mode around, and ensure to honor this
mode (e.g. maybe commit the preedit string) whenever the input method would
be reset.
This is delegated to the internal layers, so propagate this mode via
clutter_input_method_set_preedit_text().

Promises make asynchronous operations easier to manage, in particular
when used through the async/await syntax that allows for asynchronous
code to closely resemble synchronous one.
gjs has included a Gio._promisify() helper for a while now, which
monkey-patches methods that follow GIO's async pattern to return a
Promise when called without a callback argument.
Use that to get rid of all those GAsyncReadyCallbacks!

The offset argument is changing from uint to int. Which means we
might would pass a negative offset and trigger an "out of bounds"
error. Make it work more or less alright with older mutters, by
clamping the offset to 0.

Forward the arguments at the 'delete-surrounding-text' signal
from IBusInputContext to clutter_input_method_delete_surrounding()
so that ibus-typing-booster use the deleting surrounding text function.
Input method engines can delete the output text in applications
with this function.
This change will require a change of mutter of mutter!517
because the first arguemnt of the 'delete-surrounding-text' is INT
to express the offset of the current cursor position but
the first one of clutter_input_method_delete_surrounding() is UINT
since the Wayland spec accepts UINT in delete_surrounding()
mutter will change the type of the first one to INT in
clutter_input_method_delete_surrounding() to work with this change.

In the xwayland-on-demand scenario, it may happen that Xwayland is
shutdown (causing a restart of ibus-daemon to drop ibus-x11) while
we are typing.
If we have a bit of bad luck, this will cause the IBusInputContext
to be disposed (due to its bus "closing") at a time when we have
an ibus_input_context_process_key_event_async() request on the fly.
As the object is disposed in between this would tickle JS (rightfully
complaining that it's been disposed under its feet) and make us pass
an actually NULL IBusInputContext to the corresponding _finish()
function (despite the IBusInputContext being still held alive by some
other refs). This will assert and abort in
ibus_input_context_process_key_event_async_finish() then.
To handle this, listen for IBusInputContext::destroy, and reset our
internal state, this way we can compare on the JS side that the
IBusInputContext is indeed an up-to-date one.

The shell tries to spawn the ibus daemon on startup if unavailable, however
as per commit 8adfc5b1 we also force restarting it once the X11 server is
available.
Unfortunately this could cause a race if we disconnect while we were already
connected to an ibus daemon, but still in the process of going through the
various nested calls.
In fact the ::disconnect callback didn't stop any further async ibus call
that, even if failing, would have eventually triggered the emission of a
'ready' signal and to the Keyboard's callback, leading under X11 to a full
grab owned by ibus daemon.
In order to avoid this and keep control of the calls order, use in both
IbusManager and InputMethod a cancellable that is setup before connecting to
the bus, and that is cancelled on disconnection.
Then handle the finish() calls properly, using try/catch to validate the
returned value, taking in account the potential error and just not
proceeding in case of cancellation.

gnome-shell calls ibus_input_context_focus_in() in InputMethod.focus_in()
but the event is not actually forwarded to panels and engines in GNOME
Wayland because gnome-shell changes IBus.Capabilite by focus events and
disables IBus.Capabilite.FOCUS when ibus_input_context_focus_in() is called.
IBus.Capabilite is assumed a fixed value per input context in the
first place and it should not be changed by focus events.

Those unused arguments aren't bugs - unbeknownst to eslint, they all
correspond to valid signal parameters - but they don't contribute
anything to clarity, so just remove them anyway.

When `ibus restart` runs, InputMethod.enabled is changed to false
and no longer enable ibus but 'enabled' and 'disabled' signals
are not used in the current IBus clients and it's good to delete
the member simply.

ClutterVirtualInputDevice has the limitation that event flags won't be
made to contain CLUTTER_EVENT_FLAG_INPUT_METHOD, possibly causing feedback
loops.
As the event gets injected up the platform dependent bits, we can avoid
care on not pressing the same key twice, we still expect coherence between
key presses and releases from the IM though.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/531
The input method may hint that certain keycodes should be pressed/released
besides the textual information in ::commit. An example is hitting space
in some IMs to commit text, where both ::commit happens, and an space is
visibly inserted. In order to handle this properly, we must honor
::forward-key-press.
In order to cater for the case that a keypress is forwarded while handling
that same keypress in a physical keyboard, check the current event being
handled and just forward it as-is if it matches. This is necessary to
prevent state from being doubly set, and the second event silenced away.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/275Closes: #275
Even though we are using an "xkb" source, it still makes sense to
pass the event through the IBus simple engine, in order to let it
handle compose keys and ctrl+shift+[u|e].

When not using arrow notation with anonymous functions, we use Lang.bind()
to bind `this` to named callbacks. However since ES5, this functionality
is already provided by Function.prototype.bind() - in fact, Lang.bind()
itself uses it when no extra arguments are specified. Just use the built-in
function directly where possible, and use arrow notation in the few places
where we pass additional arguments.

This is a ClutterInputMethod implementation using IBus underneath. The
input method will interact with the currently focused ClutterInputFocus,
be it shell chrome or wayland clients through the text_input protocol.
