Rewrite code acquiring dbus names so that it uses GDBus, and rewrite
ShellDBus so that it is exposed on the GDBus connection. Ports of
the other objects will follow.

This commit introduces a "session type" for
gnome-shell. It essentially defines what
mode of operation the shell runs in
(normal-in-a-users-session mode, or at-the-login-screen mode).
Note this commit only lays the groundwork. Actually
looking at the key and appropriately differentiating
the UI will happen in subsequent commits.

shell_global_get() currently implicitly instantiates the shell
global singleton the first time it's called. This means there's
no opportunity to set construction-time properties on the singleton.
This isn't an issue yet, because there aren't any. We will need it
in the future, though, when we grow a --gdm-mode that gets exposed as
a property through the global singleton.
This commit adds a new _shell_global_init() function that must be
invoked before shell_global_get() can be called.

A new envrionment variable GNOME_SHELL_ENABLE_CLEANUP is added which
causes us to attempt freeing global data. The reason this isn't
enabled by default is that it's a waste of time at best, and at
worst in corner cases could cause crashes which would fill up
crash databases. Better to leave it as a developer-only tool.
Start stubbing out some cleanup in ShellGlobal.

We weren't specifying _ALLOW_REPLACEMENT for anything except
org.gnome.Shell, which created a race - if the exiting process
didn't exit fast enough, the replacing process would fail
to get the name.

Previously (because I suck) we were ignoring the return value of
RequestName, and so we'd totally ignore the fact that we failed
to acquire the DBus name.
Make this consistent by using meta_get_replace_current_wm() and
if we're in --replace, actually replace immediately.

Build gnome-shell as a binary linked against libmutter-wm, instead of
a module to be loaded by libmutter-wm. Move the majority of
initialization-type stuff from gnome_shell_plugin_start() into main().
We still build libgnome-shell as a shared library, so that the linker
doesn't discard all the methods that are never called from C.
