9c814d1584 ShellDBus: add ShowApplications method
Add a method to control the visibility of the applications view.
This can used by gnome-settings-daemon for special keys in
certain keyboards.

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.

d4942858ba Add a screencast indicator for when we're recording
This will replace the indicator painted on the stage right now.

This unfortunately does not work for the recorder triggered by the
keybinding -- we'll simply replace the in-shell code with a keybinding
powered by gnome-settings-daemon.

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.

24c530611f Expose screencast functionality via DBus
Like screenshots, the screen recorder can be a useful tool in other cases
than being triggered by a keyboard shortcut. To account for that, export
a Screencast DBus API similar to the existing Screenshot interface.

39426f03e6 shellDBus: Fix Eval() return value when disabled
Eval() is expected to return a boolean success value and a string result.
However when the function is disabled (via the development-tools setting),
we return null for the latter which is not a valid string value.
Return an empty string instead.

7949397958 shellDBus: Add a real error reporting system to InstallExtensionRemote
Instead of using the 'extension-state-changed' signal to relay errors,
use DBus's native error mechanism to inform the method caller that the
call has failed. This requires making the method actually asynchronous
so that we don't block the browser, which is stuck waiting for a reply
from the browser plugin. To ensure this, we need to modify the browser
plugin API to ensure its extesion installation method is asynchronous.

Additionally, this lets us remove the awful, broken hacks that we used
when a user clicked the "Cancel" button, replacing it by a DBus return
value.

12c7cc278d shellDBus: Remove now unused DisableExtension/EnableExtension
These methods were initially introduced when I was planning on having
an explicit DisableExtension/EnableExtension, instead of hooking up
a gsettings notify. This behavior was changed at the last minute, but
the methods were kept to avoid having to change the browser-plugin.

Consumers of this API should just set the GSettings key directly
instead now.

a622aba7eb extensionUtils: Create and allow access to a new "extension" object
The "extension" object is what I previously called the "helper" object.
It contains the extension importer object as well as the metadata object.
Things that were previously added on to the metadata (state, path, dir, etc.)
are now part of this new "extension" object.

With the new importer changes brought on by the extension prefs tool,
extensions are left without a way to import submodules at the global scope,
which would make them rely on techniques like:

  var MySubModule;

  function init(meta) {
      MySubModule = meta.importer.mySubModule;
  }

That is, there's now a lot more meaningless boilerplate that nobody wants
to write and nobody wants to reivew.

Let's solve this with a few clever hacks.
Allow extensions to get their current extension object with:

  let extension = imports.misc.extensionUtils.getCurrentExtension();

As such, extensions can now get their own extension object before the
'init' method is called, so they can import submodules or do other things
at the module scope:

  const MySubModule = extension.imports.mySubModule;
  const dataPath = GLib.build_filenamev([extension.path, 'awesome-data.json']);

7c108e267c dbus: fix Screenshot async methods fallout from GDBus migration
With GJS' GDBus implementation, we get the invocation paramters as an
array if we declare a method as async.
This is bad and not consistent with what GJS does for synchronous
methods, but it's the way it is, and other classes in gnome-shell
implement this correctly by exploding the array into its components in
the method implementation, but not the screenshot methods.
Also, we're supposed to return a value using the provided invocation
object, not with a callback now, so do that.
