Commit 21e14bd46f fixed this for the
brightness slider, but we have the same problem for volume too. When the
volume is muted - for example in Settings or via a media key, we update
the slider to '0' to indicate this visually. But we also actually invoke
the slider's callback to *set* the volume to zero. That means that the
previous level is overwritten so it can't be restored when unmuting.
The fix is the same - when we update the slider internally ourselves,
don't call the signal handler.

We now do 2 things along Xwayland startup/shutdown:
- Start or stop the gnome-session-x11-services target, that will
pull all X11 related services that the session might depend on.
- As we start ibus-daemon manually, trigger a restart in order to
toggle the XIM daemon on and off along with Xwayland presence.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/680
We may need to restart it with different arguments, so make it
possible to do that. Also, avoid to just restart it on _clear(),
this is now most likely through our --replace call than it is
through ibus-daemon eg. dying, avoids some noise in logs as
there is already an ongoing ibus-daemon.

An Endless OS system was found in the wild with a malformed
.local/share/gnome-shell/notifications which causes _loadNotifications()
to raise an exception. This exception was not previously handled and
bubbles all the way out to gnome_shell_plugin_start(), whereupon the
shell exit(1)s. The user could no longer log into their computer.
Handle exceptions from _loadNotifications(), log them, and attempt to
continue. Ensure that this._isLoading is set to 'false' even on error,
so that future calls to _saveNotifications() can overwrite the (corrupt)
state file.

An Endless OS system was found in the wild with a malformed
.local/share/gnome-shell/notifications. When deserialized in Python,
after passing trusted=True to g_variant_new_from_bytes(), the first
element of the first struct in the array looks like this:
In [41]: _38.get_child_value(0).get_child_value(0)
Out[41]: GLib.Variant('s', '\Uffffffff\Uffffffff\Uffffffff\Uffffffff\Uffffffff')
When deserialised in GJS, we get:
gjs> v.get_child_value(0).get_child_value(0)
[object variant of type "s"]
gjs> v.get_child_value(0).get_child_value(0).get_string()
typein:43:1 malformed UTF-8 character sequence at offset 0
@typein:43:1
@<stdin>:1:34
While g_variant_new_from_bytes() doesn't have much to say about its
'trusted' parameter, g_variant_new_from_data() does:
> If data is trusted to be serialised data in normal form then trusted
> should be TRUE. This applies to serialised data created within this
> process or read from a trusted location on the disk (such as a file
> installed in /usr/lib alongside your application). You should set
> trusted to FALSE if data is read from the network, a file in the
> user's home directory, etc.
Persistent state is read from the user's home directory, so it should
not be trusted. With trusted=False, the string value above comes out as
"".
I don't have an explanation for how this file ended up being malformed.
I also don't have an explanation for when this started crashing: my
guess is that recent GJS became stricter about validating UTF-8 but I
could be wrong!

Instead of going via the MetaShapedTexture to get the cairo surface, get
it from the window actor. The window actor can then handle this in a way
that makes it include potential subsurfaces.

The updatesPermission is currently initialized synchronously, which
blocks the Mainloop for quite some time and therefore slows down startup
of the shell, let's do it asynchronously instead.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/689
Using the bus name to notify service startup to systemd has some
disadvantages. The main one being that systemd will consider a
gnome-shell restart (Alt+F2 r) a service failure and restart the shell,
cleaning up all its children (i.e. user launched applications). In the
future the shell should launch applications in their own transient unit
so that a service restart does not affect applications.
Another potential issue is that we must never load
gnome-shell-wayland.service and gnome-shell-x11.service at the same
time, as systemd does not like two services providing the same bus
name.

Mutter's Clutter fork can no longer be initialized separatedly, as
its backend now draws from MetaBackend. Adjust the code to use the
newly added test initialization function instead to get the test
back up.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/691
Clutter's backend code depends on MetaBackend now, which makes it
impossible to initialize without resorting to private mutter API.
Luckily we only need Clutter for interactive tests which are broken
anyway, as Clutter.main() and friends were removed a while ago.
So for now, get at least unit tests working again by simply the
unnecessary Clutter initialization.

Since we now put a short timeout in before the start of the actual pie
timer we don't start the timer as often as we used to. This allows us to
create a new PieTimer object each time a timeout is started and
therefore play a finish animation independently of other (new) timeouts.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/688
If the circle is complete and the pie timeout finished, we don't need
the lines to the center point indicating the ends of the pie anymore.
We just draw a clean circle instead, which allows for a zoom-out and
fade animation of the circle when we're done.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/688
If the pie timeout has finished successfully there's no need to cancel
the pie animation, instead we can just wait for that animation to finish
and show some visual feedback like a zoom-out animation to indicate the
click afterwards.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/688
Fade the pie timer in using a duration of 1/4 of the timeout and a
EASE_IN_QUAD animation. This significantly reduces flickering of the pie
timer while moving the cursor and makes the timer less distracting.
