Previously we used `get_image()`, which returned `cairo_surface`,
in order to create a `ClutterContent` with a screenshot of the
`MetaWindowActor`. This added a roundtrip from GPU to CPU memory.
Instead, use the new `paint_to_content()` API which lets us use a
`CoglTexture` directly as source of our `ClutterContent`.

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().

The Eval() method is unarguably the most sensitive D-Bus method
we expose, since it allows running arbitrary code in the compositor.
It is currently tied to the `development-tools` settings that is
enabled by default. As users have become accustomed to the built-in
commands that are enabled by the same setting (restart, lg, ...),
that default cannot easily be changed.
In order to restrict the method without affecting the rather harmless
commands, guard it by the new MetaContext:unsafe-mode property instead
of the setting.

Since touchpad smooth scroll events with source finger are handled by
the swipeTracker, the workspace scroll handler can focus on discrete
events.
Thanks to Mutter emulating discrete scroll events, see
meta_seat_impl_notify_scroll_continuous_in_impl in meta-seat-impl.c,
it is safe to ignore smooth scroll in the workspace scroll handler
and handle exclusively discrete events.
In addition, once high-resolution scroll events land in Mutter [1], a
mouse will be able generate non emulated smooth scroll events that
should be ignored in favour of the discrete scroll events.
Otherwise, a single mouse wheel click will scroll through multiple
workspaces at once.

The keyboard is placed outside of the screen when shown and then slides
in via a transition that changes the translate-y property. This
translation does not affect the allocation of the Keyboard actor and as
such does not trigger any of the signals LayoutManager is connected to
to update the input region. This means the input region remains at the
original position of the actor outside of the screen and as a result on
X11 clicks will go through to the underlying window.
There was a workaround for this by queuing a relayout at the end of the
transition, but this stopped working due to optimizations avoiding
unnecessary allocation changes.
This updates that workaround to toggle the visibility of the actor
instead, which is the other signal that LayoutManager reacts to. Once
ClutterActor provides better ways to react to transforms this can
hopefully be removed entirely.

GJS added a console module that extensions may start using. To ensure that
extensions using console.log() and similar functions don't show up as
'Gjs-Console' in users' system logs, we should call setConsoleLogdomain()

This GJS API addition is only accessible using ECMAScript Modules (ESM),

!1940 added support for soup 3, including a fallback to soup 2.4

Since commit fd0da9606f, we only show the "Open Windows" section

with the overview context menus, but while limiting the section to

There's a subtle difference between the top bar menu and the app

The former includes skip-taskbar windows, the latter doesn't. It

App windows are ordered by recency, so a focus change (correctly)
triggers the ::window-changed signal. If we rebuild the section
immediately in response, the activating item will be destroyed

the ::activate signal first.

There was a potential issue when suspend was inhibited and immediately
uninhibited again before the creation of the inhibitor has finished.

ScreenShield::_syncInhibitor() was closing (and recreating) the
inhibitor everytime it was called, even if no change was needed.
This gets called in various places, including on property changes in
the login1 dbus object. These happen by the time logind already started
suspending at which point new inhibitors can no longer be created. It is
only waiting for existing inhibitors to be closed, so closing the
inhibitor without a new inhibitor will cause the suspending to proceed
immediately if no other inhibitors are present. This can also happen
before the lock screen is shown, which will then complete after resume.
Fix this by keeping track of the expected inhibition state and only
create or close inhibitors if there was a change to that.

We have initTranslations() for binding an extension's
gettext domain, but nothing to help with using gettext
from an extension.
Such help would be useful though, as an extension that
calls textdomain() like a normal application would
inadvertently changes the default domain for the whole
gnome-shell process.
Instead, extensions have to use domain-specific versions
of the gettext functions:
```js
const Gettext = imports.gettext.domain('my-extension');
const _ = Gettext.gettext;
```
Make this a bit easier by adding those functions directly
to the extensions object when initTranslations() is called,
then expose helper functions for calling them.

On startup desktop-icons-ng Wayland windows have skip-taskbar==FALSE so
initially pass `_isOverviewWindow` and they get added to the overview,
which is confusing to users. However almost immediately after that they
get `meta_wayland_client_hide_from_window_list` and are removed from
future overviews. So now we respond to `notify::skip-taskbar` immediately
and prevent desktop-icons-ng appearing in the startup overview too.

We build controls layout using the whole monitor vertical space as
available, however extensions or external apps in X11 may reduce the
workarea size horizontally and the shell should always take care of it.
Given that we're already assuming that the allocation is monitor-based
and that we're adjusting it to the workarea, we can just make it more
explicit by using a workarea box that is used as the allocation area.
As per this, we also apply the same logic of applied to the vertical
dimension to the horizontal one.

To compute the available height for the layout we're currently using the
panel position, while this works for the current and default setup, the

instead.

The background group is currently allocated taking care of the workarea
x, y offset but not of its width/height and this may lead to building a

Currently, handling of touch devices in the app grid is a bit awkward,
paging by dragging the view can only happen if started from the gaps
between icons, trying to drag from an icon will trigger DnD, and popping
up the menu takes over it all.
Instead, have the app grid actions play this game of rock-paper-scissors:
- Fast swipes on icons trigger scrolling, beats DnD and menu
- Slower press-and-drag on icons trigger DnD, beats scrolling and menu
- Long press triggers menu, beats scrolling, is beaten by DnD
This allows quick swipes to handle navigation, while still allowing the
fine grained operations. DnD, when triggered, dismisses the menu, if
shown.

on RTL it gets the left item. This doesn't work well with RTL when using
the arrow keys since the text direction doesn't matter in those cases.
Pressing Left Arrow should still move left regardless of text direction.
So use the opposite methods.

If for some reason the xserver failed to start, mutter/gnome-shell
should not attempt to connect to the X11 display otherwise it will
lock up in XCB.
An indication of such a premature failure of the xserver is when the X11
services fail to start.
Return the status so that the caller can cancel the connection in time
and avoid the lockup of mutter/gnome-shell in case of failure.
This, however, makes the X11 services a critical component to start
Xwayland, meaning that a failure to start those services for any other
reason than the xserver failing to start would still prevent Xwayland
and therefore X11 clients to run in Wayland. This is however a lesser
issue than mutter/gnome-shell locking up.
This basically reverts commit a96753f0 - "windowManager: X11 can work
without gsd-xsettings".

Change behavior on pressing Super+Number in Activities/Overview mode
so that the overview mode is hidden and application can be used.
This makes it consistent with clicking icon in the dash.

Previously the workarea was only set on construction and then never
updated. As a result the preferred width and height as well as the
allocation were based on an outdated workarea size when it changed after
construction. This for example was happening during the startup
animation, for which the WorkspaceLayout is constructed before the panel
is shown. This caused the workspace in the overview to be slightly
smaller when it is first shown and the overview closing animation to
not expand the workspace to the correct size the first time it is
closed.

In the nested session the startup animation sometimes fails, weirdly
that always happens to me when running a freshly built gnome-shell the
first time. The reason it fails is that mutter fails to aquire a pointer
grab from the xserver, XIGrabDevice() is unsuccessful.
A simple workaround for this race condition in the xserver is to just
grab the devices a bit later, that is after the startups animation
instead of before it.
This was also tested with disabled animations, and seems to work just as
well in that case.

Some drag actor parents might change their width to 0 after the drag
actor has been removed. If the drag is now canceled and the drag actor
is animated to return to the current parent position and scale, this
scale can not be determined and falls back to 1.0. This might be wrong
and can result in the drag actor being too large/small at the end of the
return animation.
To avoid this calculate the scale of the parent by recursively
calculating the product of its parents individual scales.

We want to clip the Workspace actor in the appGrid state of the overview
in order to make sure windows that overflow the monitor don't spill out.
So far we had commit b1970b95b8 for that.
Now since the last commit, window previews always slightly overflow the
allocation with their icons. That means a part of the window icon gets
clipped away as soon as the transition to the appGrid starts, which
looks weird.
Fix that bug in the transition by slightly extending the clip downwards
when animating between the window picker and the app grid state. The
extra height we extend the clip by is controlled by the overviewState,
which means we extend the clip by the full icon overlap in the window
picker state, but don't extend the clip at all when in the app grid
state.

We want to use as much space as possible for showing window previews in
the overview, and the title and close buttons of those windows are only
visible on hover, so we can show them above anything if we want.
On both primary monitors and secondary monitors, there's a certain free
space available towards the bottom edge of the monitor (on the primary
monitor we show the dash there, and secondary monitors just scale down
the Workspaces). We can make use of this by checking how much free space
there is available from the bottom edge of our allocation to the bottom
edge of the monitor, and then aligning the window previews to make full
use of this space.
So stop adding any padding to the edges of the Workspace, which will
make the windows a lot larger and completely fill the Workspaces
allocation.
The left, top and right monitor edges should always be far enough away
to accomodate the close button and hover scale-up of the window. Only
with the bottom edge of the monitor we have to be a bit more careful
(the overflowing height of the window title is quite big), so there we
check if enough free space is available. If there isn't enough free
space, we simply apply a bit of bottom padding again and shift the
window up.

Make the SecondaryMonitorDisplay a bit more similar to the
ControlsManager container on the primary monitor, and clip that widget
instead of the WorkspacesViews on secondary monitors.
This will allow us to overpaint the WorkspacesView allocation and paint
the WindowPreview overlays like the title and close button outside the
allocation with the next commit.

The current gstreamer pipeline performs quite bad on slower machines and
is dropping lots of frames, improve the pipeline by changing a few
things:
- Use threads for videoconvert and improve speed of videoconvert by
disabling some unneeded things
- Add a queue before the encoding step, this allows the encoder to work
at its own pace and will lead to a lot more stability
- Remove the fixed quantizer and only set a max quantizer, this helps
quite a bit with performance
- Change the deadline parameter of vp8enc to 1: This makes the encoder
go into real time mode, which will make it a lot faster
- Set cpu-used to 16, the maximum possible value.
- Set static-threshold to 1000, static-threshold is the motion detection
threshold, and while a value of 100 is recommended for screencasting in
the gstreamer documentation (see [1]), using 1000 appears to perform a
lot better and still outputs fairly good quality
- Set a larger buffer size than the default size, this seems to get a
bit more stability during high load scenarios
All in all, those changes make the pipeline drop no more frames when
recording at 30 FPS and 2K screen resolution. That was tested on a
fairly recent mobile core-i5 processor.
Also, because we now have two %T replacement strings for the number of
threads, we need to switch to replaceAll(). For that to work, we have to
put the %T matching expression into quotes.

The original parent of a dragged actor might have been destroyed after
the drag has been started. When the drag is canceled and _dragOrigParent
is set, the code is trying to get the current position and size of it
when restoring. With a destroyed parent this however would result in a
crash.
This could happen for example when starting a drag on a window preview
while the overview is hiding and then releasing it once the transition
is done.

`ThumbnailsBox` listens for the `showing` signal from the `Overview` to
create its thumbnails and destroys them on the `hide` signal. Since the
`showing` signal can be emitted multiple times when switching between
the shown and hidden state without ever fully completing the transition,
this will cause `_createThumbnails` to be called multiple times, each
time adding another set of workspaces.
