The original scripting framework was based on SpiderMonkey's
pre-standard generators, and was simply translated to the
corresponding standard syntax when updating it to work with
recent JS versions.
We can do even better by using the standard async/await pattern
instead of generators/yield.

Since ES5, trailing commas in arrays and object literals are valid.
We generally haven't used them so far, but they are actually a good
idea, as they make additions and removals in diffs much cleaner.

As arrow functions have an implicit return value, an assignment of
this.foo = bar could have been intended as a this.foo === bar
comparison. To catch those errors, we will disallow these kinds
of assignments unless they are marked explicitly by an extra pair
of parentheses.

The functions here are asynchronous to handle control back to the
mainloop while waiting for an action to complete, not to run operations
in parallel. That is, the race condition the rule is protecting against
isn't an issue here, so disable the error.

For GObject properties, we follow the convention of all-lowercase,
dash-separated names. Those translate to underscores in getters/setters,
so exempt them from the newly added "camelcase" rule.

While we aren't using those destructured variables, they are still useful
to document the meaning of those elements. We don't want eslint to keep
warning about them though, so mark them accordingly.

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.

Braces are optional for single-line arrow functions, but there's a
subtle difference:
Without braces, the expression is implicitly used as return value; with
braces, the function returns nothing unless there's an explicit return.
We currently reflect that in our style by only omitting braces when the
function is expected to have a return value, but that's not very obvious,
not an important differentiation to make, and not easy to express in an
automatic rule.
So just omit braces consistently as mandated by gjs' coding style.

Commit f285f2c6 changed Scripting.createTestWindow() to accept a parameter
object instead of a parameter list but forgot to remove the width and height
arguments. This breaks the "core" test as all windows are created with default
settings.
