We have been using type-safe comparisons in new code for quite a while
now, however old code has only been adapted slowly.
Change all the remaining bits to get rid of another legacy style
difference.

Removes the init() function in favor of executing all environment
changes when the file is imported.
Additionally ports all unit tests using imports.gi.environment.init() to
use the updated module.

Once environment.js is an ES module we need to ensure we can dynamically
specify the version for required GI dependencies such as Clutter.
Moving dependency version setup to dependencies.js ensures gi.require
calls are done before environment.js imports any utilities.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2822>
The environment module is used to initialize the environment, yet it
currently also defines the adjustAnimationTime() function.
Ideally it should not export any utility functions, in particular
once converted to ESM.
The function cannot be moved to the existing Utils module, as that
depends on an initialized environment, and can therefore not be
imported from environment.js, so use that opportunity to group
together several animation helpers in a new animationUtils module.

`toLocaleFormat` is now `formatDateWithCFormatString` and formatTime and
formatTimeSpan are moved into dateUtils.
Instead of overriding system.clearDateCaches, add a helper in dateUtils.

We started to support Soup3 in GNOME 41, and used it by default
since GNOME 43. This should be enough time for distros to adapt,
so GNOME 45 looks like a good moment to drop the old Soup2 support.

There is only a very limited subset of GTK that is usable from
within the compositor, and by now we should have replacements
for all of them in place.
On the other hands there is plenty that can go catastrophically
wrong in the rest. In particular on wayland, GTK must never open
a wayland display connection.
Make sure that extensions don't do anything silly, by disallowing
all GDK backends.

There's a few things going on here, that unfortunately must
happen in lockstep:
- The gnome-desktop-3.0 dependency gets replaced by gnome-desktop-4
and gnome-bg-4. The code in ui/background.js required minor updates.
- The libnma dependency gets replaced by a libnma4 dependency. The
code in misc/modemManager.js required minor updates.
- The gtk3 dependency is torn down everywhere but tests. Some
missing GdkPixbuf dependencies had to be added to compensate for
its lack.
- gtk_init_check() is no longer called
As a result, we replace a hard gtk3 dependency with a soft gtk4
run-time linking one, only added indirectly through gnome-bg-4
and libnma4.

This is something that will be used in other places outside the
background code, so let's just define it globally without having to care
about the importing order.

In commit ee09c5c853 we chose to pick
the minimum value in order to preserve 0 instead of replacing it with
1. While returning 0 unconditionally when animations are disabled
seems the more logic thing to do, we were unsure about possible side
effects. Do the change now. Since we are early in the development cycle
we should be able to deal with side effects (if any) on time for the
next release.

There are cases where the animation time is set to 0 on purpose
in order to not animate. When animations are disabled via
/org/gnome/desktop/interface/enable-animations those animation
times are increased from 0 to 1. This makes the "Caps lock is on."
message appear unconditionally in the lockscreen for a brief moment.
Select the minimum between the two values. So that an animation time
0 is preserved instead of being replaced by 1.

The logging function cannot be asynchronous, so move the override
into main.js where ExtensionUtils can be imported at the top level.
Importing ExtensionUtils in environment.js at the top level is not
possible because it would import Main prematurely.

Introduce a new class, EventEmitter, which implements signal
handling for pure JavaScript classes. EventEmitter still
utilizes GJS' addSignalMethods internally.
EventEmitter allows static typechecking to understand the
structure of event-emitting JS classes and makes creating
child classes simpler.
The name 'EventEmitter' mirrors a common name for this pattern
in Node and in JS libraries.

If one of these libraries breaks its GIR API in future, then upgrading
packages unrelated to gnome-shell might pull in the newer version,
causing gnome-shell to crash when it gets a newer GIR API that is
incompatible with its expectations. For example, this seems to be
happening in Debian testing at the moment, when GNOME Shell 41.4
imports GWeather and can get version 4.0 instead of the version 3.0 that
it expected.
Adding explicit API versions at the time the newer version is released
is too late, because that will still let the newer version of the GIR API
break pre-existing GNOME Shell packages. Prevent similar crashes in
future by making the desired versions explicit.
This is done for all third-party libraries except GLib, similar to the
common practice in Python code; if GLib breaks API, then that will be
a disruptive change to the whole GLib/GObject ecosystem, regardless.
Gvc, Meta, Shell, Shew, St are not included because they're private
(only exist in a non-default search path entry).
Clutter and Cogl *are* included, because we need to import the fork of
them that comes with Meta, as opposed to their deprecated standalone
versions.

We currently assume that any '::destroy' signal on a GObject type
has the semantics of the ClutterActor/GtkWidget signal, and should
therefore result in all signals being disconnected.
But we already have a case where the assumption doesn't hold: ShellWM
uses '::destroy' for the closing animation of windows, and the ShellWM
object itself remains very valid after the emission.
So rather than making assumptions about '::destroy', check objects
against a list of destroyable types that are explicitly registered
as such.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2226>
The module exports a `addObjectSignalMethods()` method that extends
the provided prototype with `connectObject()` and `disconnectObject()`
methods.
In its simplest form, `connectObject()` looks like the regular
`connect()` method, except for an additional parameter:
```js
this._button.connectObject('clicked',
() => this._onButtonClicked(), this);
```
The additional object can be used to disconnect all handlers on the
instance that were connected with that object, similar to
`g_signal_handlers_disconnect_by_data()` (which cannot be used
from introspection).
For objects that are subclasses of Clutter.Actor, that will happen
automatically when the actor is destroyed, similar to
`g_signal_connect_object()`.
Finally, `connectObject()` allows to conveniently connect multiple
signals at once, similar to `g_object_connect()`:
```js
this._toggleButton.connect(
'clicked', () => this._onClicked(),
'notify::checked', () => this._onChecked(), this);
```

We have made good progress on object literals as well, although there
are still a lot that use the old style, given how ubiquitous object
literals are.
But the needed reindentation isn't overly intrusive, as changes are
limited to the object literals themselves (i.e. they don't affect
surrounding code).
And given that object literals account for quite a bit of the remaining
differences between regular and legacy rules, doing the transition now
is still worthwhile.

If the finish function isn't specified, promisify will now try
to use the async name without '_async'/'_begin' suffix (if any)
and '_finish' appended.
Everything except IBus uses a variation of that pattern, so there's
quite a bit of boilerplate we get to remove…

Besides dropping its GTK dependency (which doesn't affect us),
GWeather 4.0 replaces its own timezone type with GTimeZone.
It's easy enough to adjust to that, so port over to the new
version.

libgnome-bluetooth will start to offer a 2.0 library version
depending on GTK4. Given that GNOME Shell already depends on
GTK3, it cannot use this next version of gnome-bluetooth. And
since GJS will automatically try and use the latest version
available of any library, Shell must specify it wants 1.0
explicitly.
Add a required GnomeBluetooth version number when importing it
for the status indicator.

Like the old Tweener API, ease() allows to transition multiple
properties at once. If autoReverse or repeatCount are specified,
they should apply to all transitions, but right now we only set
them for the first one.

!1940 added support for soup 3, including a fallback to soup 2.4
where the newer version isn't available.
Unfortunately it missed that libgweather has a hidden soup dependency,
and now gnome-shell fails to start if a weather location has been set
up and soup 3 is available.
We don't have a good way to detect that case, so hide the soup 3 support
behind a build option. Distributors are expected to switch it at the
same time as libgweather.

When using `Actor.ease_property` if the property starts with '@' and the
duration of the transition is zero (which may happen if the actor is not
mapped even if a non-zero duration was passed to `ease_property`), the
impl will try getting the actual target object where the property should
be set.
This works fine for most cases but it currently throws an error when
passing '@content.*' properties. Fix this by handling '@content' as
a property of `actor.content` (used by MetaBackgroundActor when
showing the overview).

global.run_at_leisure() is used from automated scripts to schedule
a callback when the shell is idle. However since we moved away from
Tweener, animations are no longer taken into account; fix this by
marking transitions as "work" if the convenience ease() functions
are used.

This is a small convenience method for using ClutterActor's iterator API

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.

Promises make asynchronous operations easier to manage, in particular
when used through the async/await syntax that allows for asynchronous
code to closely resemble synchronous one.
gjs has included a Gio._promisify() helper for a while now, which
monkey-patches methods that follow GIO's async pattern to return a
Promise when called without a callback argument.
Use that to get rid of all those GAsyncReadyCallbacks!

Creating a new GTimeZone for the local timezone can be quite expensive if
done repeatedly. It requires an open(), mmap(), and parsing of
/etc/localtime.
This patch was provided by Florian, and I've tested it as far back as
3.28.4 to ensure that we are really reducing the number of open() calls
on the compositor thread.

If a transition is reversed, the final property values will be the
same as before the transition. However this currently only works
correctly when we actually use a transition; to fix this with a
duration of 0, simply skip the set() call when the transition is
reversed.

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
