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.

The man pages don't change very often, but draw in both docbook and
asciidoc. The latter is particularly problematic, as some distros
still ship only a python2 version of the tool.
Address this by generating the man pages at dist time, and including
the result in the tarball.

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.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/2337
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.

We kept the old binary name when overhauling the tool for the Extensions
app to avoid unnecessary churn for packagers/distributors.
However we now have a reason to "free" the old name, so rename the binary
to match the (sub)project name.

As of mozjs68 (gjs-1.64) `globalThis` is recommended over `window` and
it makes more sense in this context anyways. Migrate the few instances
of `window` we use and adjust the eslint configuration.
`window` will continue to resolve to `globalThis`, so this won't affect
extensions or other downstream users.

When creating an extension interactively, we currently always use
the default template unless the --template option is used.
Instead, display the list of available templates to the user and
prompt them to pick one if it wasn't specified.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/812
When we allow users to choose between different templates, we should
provide some context for each template to facilitate that choice.
Add that metadata in the form of a .desktop file, which allows us to
specify name and description, and is well supported by our translation
infrastructure.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/812
The template used when creating a new extension is intentionally
minimal, as the sample code in the old extensions-tool proved to
be annoying more often than not.
However as we support per-command options, we don't have to limit
ourselves to a single template, and can offer alternatives for
common use cases.
To prepare for that, namespace the existing template by moving it
into a subfolder.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/812
When using the create command's --interactive option, we prompt for
any metadata that wasn't passed on the command line. As every prompt
is preceded by a short multi-line description, it is hard to follow
when everything is lumped together.
Improve legibility by separating all prompts by newlines.

Commit 4589da957 added D-Bus API for enabling/disabling extensions,
use that if possible to provide better feedback and not clutter the
settings with non-existent UUIDs.
The old code path is preserved as fallback to keep the commands
working from outside a running shell session.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/2391
UninstallExtensions() only returns whether the operation was successful,
not why it failed. However we know that only user extensions can be
uninstalled, so check that first to provide a more meaningful error.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/2391
For the prefs command, we first fetch the extension info to check
whether the extension exists and actually has preferences. This
pattern can be useful for other commands and properties, so split
out a generic helper function.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/2391
Error reporting is useful when used interactively, but often undesirable
when used in scripts. Account for that with a common --quiet option,
which is more convenient than redirection stderr to /dev/null.

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 ...
