When the app is properly launched, D-Bus activation will be followed
by a call to org.freedesktop.Application.Activate() to open the window.
But it's also possible for D-Bus activation to happen in other
circumstances, for example during gdbus command line completion.
We don't want to pop up a window then, so pass the --gapplication-service
flag to properly separate D-Bus activation from activating the app.

Like the mutter 40.alpha.1.1 release, we missed adjusting to a
GSettings schema move from g-s-d to gsettings-desktop-schemas,
resulting in an abort on startup with the latest released
gnome-settings-daemon.
With the previous preparations in place, it is time to take the plunge.
As both the app and the portal use the same small library for handling
external windows, port everything at once to avoid the hassle of building
and installing two versions of the library.
With the portal using GTK4 now, all extensions must port their preference
widgets as well.

GTK4 will remove the GtkHeaderBar:title property, so stop using it
and set the window's title property instead, as that's what headbars
use in both GTK3 and GTK4 unless explicitly overridden.

I messed up and released 40.alpha at the same time as 3.38.2, when it's
supposed to be in January. In order to re-align with the schedule, change
the upcoming version to 40.alpha2 so we don't have to skip a release and
will be back on track in time of 40.beta.
Currently there is no indication that an extension had an error except
for the sensitivity of the switch (which may have a different cause).
This is useful information to users, so add a small error indicator
alongside the updates icon and show the actual error in the details.

Currently the switches handle position reflects the requested
extension state (as in: the user (de)activated the switch),
while the actual extension state is reflected by the underlying
state.
That doesn't work well when the switch is insensitive though (for
example on error), because the desaturation neuters the color
that reflects the state.
Address this by resetting the switch handle to the state when
making it insensitive.

Predefined categories aren't a great way for organizing installed
applications, but they have their use in "stores" like Software
or flathub.
Not listing any category means we fall through the cracks, so
pick the (hopefully) least inappropriate one ...

The Extensions app code is now independent enough from the rest of the code
base to move it to its own subprojects, like we did for the extensions-tool.
This allows for stand-alone builds of the app, which we are about to use
for distributing it as flatpak.
