The `GetWindows` method gives access to the list of windows for each
application with some of their properties, so utilities such as dogtail
can pick the window of their choice to interfere with using the provided
window id.

Add a D-Bus API that allows the API user to introspect the application
state of the shell. Currently the only exposed information is list of
running applications and which one is active (i.e. has focus).

Since commit 551e827841, we don't always pass a callback parameter.
However passing it on as undefined to ibus doesn't work, as gjs doesn't
accept that as a valid callback value and throw an error. As a result,
we can end up with no layout selected in the keyboard menu and an "empty"
indicator. Fix this by explicitly passing null if no callback has been
provided.

ClutterVirtualInputDevice has the limitation that event flags won't be
made to contain CLUTTER_EVENT_FLAG_INPUT_METHOD, possibly causing feedback
loops.
As the event gets injected up the platform dependent bits, we can avoid
care on not pressing the same key twice, we still expect coherence between
key presses and releases from the IM though.

Whenever a command runs in the run dialog, it
will be added to the history unless it is
already the last entry. This does not apply
for entries that are not consecutive, which can
result in long chains of commands which
alternate, e.g. lg, r, lg, r, lg, r. Not only is
this wasteful in terms of space, but also
inconsistent with how history works elsewhere,
e.g. in the shell.
Therefore, remove entries in the history that are
equal to the one that will be added to the end of
of the history when the entry already exists.

gjs's D-Bus convenience explicitly expects a string representation
of an interface, but the new convenience method to load an XML
description from a resource introduced in commit f42d9df3e0 only
returns a string when using gjs from the GNOME 3.30 release. We
have so far managed to keep compatibility with the previous stable
gjs release, so fix up the fallback code to cast to string.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/578
Commit dbf993300a moved all inline D-Bus interface descriptions to template
strings so we can stop escaping line breaks.
Unfortunately that unveiled a grave bug in xgettext, which currently cannot
handle files that contain both backtick and slash characters - as a result,
translations from affected files have started to disappear as translators
run xgettext/msgmerge.
Instead of reverting the change and getting the crusty escaping back, we
will take this as an opportunity to stop inlining the XML altogether and
load it from a resource instead.
To facilitate that, add a small helper method that loads a D-Bus interface
description from a dedicated resource bundle.

The object manager tries to synthesize interface removal
events if the bus name of a remote object drops off the bus.
The code had bad typos in it, though: it reuses the `i`
index variable in its inner loop, where it should be using
the `j` index variable.
This commit corrects the i/j confusion.
The object manager tries to synthesize interface removal
events if the bus name of a remote object drops off the bus.
The code has a bad typo in it, though: it confuses `objectPaths`
(the list of all object paths) and `objectPath` (the object
currently being processed this iteration of the loop).
That leads to a failure to synthesize the interface removal
events, and spew in the log.
This commit corrects the objectPath/objectPaths confusion.
As strings are guaranteed to use UTF-8 in the GNOME platform, generic
file APIs like g_file_load_contents() return raw data instead. Since
gjs' recent update to mozjs60, this data is now returns as Uint8Array
which cannot simply be treated as string - its toString() method boils
down to arr.join(',') - so use gjs' new ByteArray module to explicitly
convert the data.

The input method may hint that certain keycodes should be pressed/released
besides the textual information in ::commit. An example is hitting space
in some IMs to commit text, where both ::commit happens, and an space is
visibly inserted. In order to handle this properly, we must honor
::forward-key-press.
In order to cater for the case that a keypress is forwarded while handling
that same keypress in a physical keyboard, check the current event being
handled and just forward it as-is if it matches. This is necessary to
prevent state from being doubly set, and the second event silenced away.

If we're started by systemd, we won't be in the user's display session.
However, this is still the session that will get locked & unlocked. Ask
logind what the 'display' or 'greeter' session is, and watch for the
Unlock signal for that session to know when to unlock.

And stop using FocusCaretTracker for caret position purposes. This
new object uses 1) the text-input protocol in wayland and 2) Info
from IBusPanelService for X11 (which is meant to work for XIM too).
This drops the usage of AtspiEventListener for OSK purposes, which
is best to avoid.
commit 642107a2 attempts to avoid resetting the current keymap on
spurious input source changes.
It does this by checking if the current layout id is found in
the new list of layouts and resetting the current layout to the
associated match in the list. By not nullifying the current
layout, it won't get subsequently reset.
Unfortunately, if the order of the list changes, resetting the
current keymap is still necessary, since the order corresponds
with the index of the activated group.
This commit changes the code to nullify the current layout if
its group index changes.

The IM can pretty much update the input sources anytime (even if
to set the same ones). That ends up triggering rebuilding all user
defined keymaps, and losing modifier state if we are unfortunate
enough that this caught us while pressing one.
One common situation seems to be password entries, resulting in
the wrong character being printed if the first character happens
to require the shift key.
If the current keymap is not found in the newly loaded list,
this._current will end up null, with the same behavior as we get
currently (immediate keymap reload).

The author of the original URL-matching regex warns[0] that the pattern may
cause certain regex engines to lock up with certain input, namely patterns
that contain parentheses. It turns out SpiderMonkey is affected, but rather
than switching to the author's improved version (that is still crazy), sim-
plify the pattern a bit by removing support for nested parentheses in URLs.
Even a single pair of parentheses is extremely rare, so this is unlikely to
make a noticeable difference (other than not locking up SpiderMonkey of
course) ...

Even though we are using an "xkb" source, it still makes sense to
pass the event through the IBus simple engine, in order to let it
handle compose keys and ctrl+shift+[u|e].

When not using arrow notation with anonymous functions, we use Lang.bind()
to bind `this` to named callbacks. However since ES5, this functionality
is already provided by Function.prototype.bind() - in fact, Lang.bind()
itself uses it when no extra arguments are specified. Just use the built-in
function directly where possible, and use arrow notation in the few places
where we pass additional arguments.

IBus was initially made optional as gnome-shell depended on too
recent API. This API is now old enough and gnome-shell is committing
further to IBus by implementing a ClutterInputMethod through it.
Let's just make IBus a mandatory dependency, instead of making code
paths trickier to cater for situations where it's missing.
This is a ClutterInputMethod implementation using IBus underneath. The
input method will interact with the currently focused ClutterInputFocus,
be it shell chrome or wayland clients through the text_input protocol.
It turns out that NetworkManager does export the directory as pkg-config
variable after all, so use that instead of building the path ourselves
from the prefix.

Every action has specific associated terms that
identify that action and show it in the search
results. Methods to match the actions as well
as getting properties of specific actions are
needed in order to provide a way of using the
actions.

We want to be able to search for available system actions, so
rather than tracking each action in a separate property, store
them in a single map that can be searched in a generic and clean
way.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691900
In anticipation of showing the system actions in
the search results, it is fit to move action
specific code to its own module in order to
reuse it.

Don't try to access a non-existent engine - it probably makes sense to

We only use lastItem() to reset the history index to the end, so
nobody noticed the utter nonsense in the return value until gjs
started to warn about it. As we don't actually use the value
anywhere, we could just remove it, but the function name implies
that an item is returned, so fix it to behave as advertised.

While the string returned by formatTime() should follow the locale's
text direction as a whole, the actual time part is always expected
to put hours on the left and minutes to the right. It is possible to
enforce that by inserting a left-to-right mark, but so far this is
only done by the Hebrew translation. So in order to not require all
other RTL translations to be fixed individually, just insert the
mark into the returned string ourselves like gnome-desktop's WallClock
code does[0].

Ever since commit b8e29ae8c7
(I think), start up is littered with this message:
Gjs-WARNING **: JS ERROR: could not get remote objects for service

since gnome-shell is now started before gnome-settings-daemon.
This commit addresses the problem by making the object manager code
not try to autostart its proxy, and instead wait for it to appear.
