The point of fading the icon is to make the text displayed over the
icon more legible. In RTL layouts, the text is displayed on the left
of the icon, so fading the right-hand-side of the icon doesn't work
well.

This includes a rename from the G* namespace to the Gtk* one, which
will help us with introspecting this code. Note that this removes
some of the custom code we added to GActionMuxer to relay event times
to the remote action group. We'll add this back soon.

Currently we assume that GTK_UNIQUE_BUS_NAME is shared between all
windows of an application. This assumption does not hold true for
applications that specify G_APPLICATION_NON_UNIQUE, so make sure
to update the menu as necessary.

ShellApp keeps track of windows sorted by most recently used first
which means that when raising windows we need to start from the end of
the list to finish with the correct stacking order.
This patch just makes the code agree with the comment which was
already there.

.desktop files have been designed for browsing, so the existing
fields often produce insufficient results when used for search.
gnome-control-center used X-GNOME-Keywords for that purpose, which
has now been standardized as Keywords. It makes sense for us to
support it in gnome-shell as well (and encourage its use outside
of settings panels).

The application proxy is created asynchrously after the dbus name
is registed. This means that when tracking the first window (and
therefore creating the first window GActionGroup) there is no
app proxy yet.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=633028
It's not guaranteed that the application DBus proxy appears before
we receive the first focus event from the toplevel window.
Ensure that the first method to access the action muxer creates it if
hasn't been created yet.
GTK+ also exports window-specific actions, by putting the object path
for the exported action group in the _DBUS_OBJECT_PATH X property.
We add this action group to the app's muxer with a 'win' prefix,
since that is what the exported menu expects. Whenever the focus
window changes, we update the window-specific actions of its
application, and emit notify::action-group to cause the app
menu to be updated.
GDBusActionGroup api has changed again, adapt to that.
Also, use a GActionMuxer to add the 'app.' prefix to actions,
instead of manually stripping it out of the action names.
In the future, the muxer will also contain per-window actions
with a 'win.' prefix.
GMenuProxy has been replaced by GDBusMenuModel, and the object path
has been moved (now needs to be retrieved from the AppMenu GApplication
property).
Update the test to prefix each action with "app." as documented,
and use a GtkApplicationWindow instead of a plain GtkWindow.
GDBusActionGroup and GMenuProxy are new objects in GIO 2.32 that
help with accessing menus and actions of remote applications.
This patch makes it possible for the shell to associate an
application with a dbus name and from that a GMenu, that will
be shown as the application menu.

Not all desktop files tracked by the shell have
Exec lines. This could be because they're actually
run by another process, for instance, and the desktop
file is merely there to provide metadata. For example,
nautilus-pastebin provides a desktop file without an
Exec line.
The shell currently crashes if one of these partial
desktop files is installed and the user attempts to
search from the overview.
commit 37726a4cb6 fixed
a similar crasher.
This commit fixes the next one lower in the code.

Instead of saving the last_used_time per-app, grab the maximum time for all
windows. The logic is less hard to keep track of, and it solves some edge
case issues where windows that no longer exist update the user time, even
if none of the other windows have been used recently.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660650
We originally OR'ed search terms and favored results which matched
multiple times to get more relevant results. When changing search
to AND search terms, the semantics of "multiple matches" were
changed to refer to a single term matching multiple criteria (name,
executable), which seemed like a good idea at the time.
However in practice this just results in applications whose
user-visible name matches the executable name on disk being
favored over applications using a more generic name, which
isn't too useful (in particular when taking usage frequency
into account).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=623372
Currently we use a very strict definition of "prefix", where the
search term has to match at the very beginning of the searched
criteria (application name, executable name). Use a more liberal
definition by including matches where the preceding character is
a space (application name) or hyphen (executable name) as well;
as many applications use a prefix, this should improve the quality
of results.

Commit 0af108211c introduced a
regression where applications that appear in multiple categories were
duplicated in the "All Apps" list, because we switched from
uniquifying on desktop file ID to the GMenuTreeEntry.
Switch back to keeping the set of apps based on ID. To flesh this
out, we keep the ShellApp instance for a given ID around forever, and
when we're loading new contents, we replace the GMenuTreeEntry inside
the app. That means callers still get new data.
We still keep around the running app list, though we could just
recompute it from the app list now.

This patch fixes the "apps vanish from alt-TAB bug".
If a "package system" rips away and possibly replaces .desktop files
at some random time, we have historically used inotify to detect this
and reread state (in a racy way, but...). In GNOME 2, this was
generally not too problematic because the menu widget was totally
separate from the list of windows - and the data they operate on was
disjoint as well.
In GNOME 3 we unify these, and this creates architectural problems
because the windows are tied to the app.
What this patch tries to do is, when rereading the application state,
if we have a running application, we keep that app around instead of
making a new instance. This ensures we preserve any state such as the
set of open windows.
This requires moving the running state into ShellAppSystem. Adjust
callers as necessary, and while we're at it drop the unused "contexts"
stuff.
This is just a somewhat quick band-aid; a REAL fix would require us
having low-level control over application installation. As long as
we're on top of random broken tar+wget wrappers, it will be gross.
A slight future improvement to this patch would add an explicit
"merge" between the old and new data. I think probably we always keep
around the ShellApp corresponding to a given ID, but replace its
GMenuTreeEntry.

During a state transition from running to not-running for
window-backend apps, it's possible we get a request for the icon.
Avoid asserting here and just return an empty image.

As danw points out,
"It's unique during the lifetime of the window, but reasonably likely to be
reused by another window after this one is destroyed. Using
meta_window_get_stable_sequence() might be better."

Since almost all of the callers of shell_app_activate were using the
default workspace (by passing -1), remove that parameter.
Add a new shell_app_activate_full() API which takes a workspace as
well as a timestamp; previously we might have been ignoring event
timestamps from elsewhere.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648149
This dramatically thins down and sanitizes the application code.
The ShellAppSystem changes in a number of ways:
* Preferences are special cased more explicitly; they aren't apps,
they're shortcuts for an app), and we don't have many of them, so
don't need e.g. the optimizations in ShellAppSystem for searching.
* get_app() changes to lookup_app() and returns null if an app isn't
found. The semantics where it tried to find the .desktop file
if we didn't know about it were just broken; I am pretty sure no
caller needs this, and if they do we'll fix them.
* ShellAppSystem maintains two indexes on apps (by desktop file id
and by GMenuTreeEntry), but is no longer in the business of
dealing with GMenuTree as far as hierarchy and categories go. That
is moved up into js/ui/appDisplay.js. Actually, it flattens both
apps and settings.
Also, ShellWindowTracker is now the sole reference-owner for
window-backed apps. We still do the weird "window:0x1234beef" id
for these apps, but a reference is not stored in ShellAppSystem.
The js/ui/appDisplay.js code is rewritten, and sucks a lot less.
Variable names are clearer:
_apps -> _appIcons
_filterApp -> _visibleApps
_filters -> _categoryBox
Similarly for function names. We no longer call (for every app) a
recursive lookup in GMenuTree to see if it's in a particular section
on every category switch; it's all cached.
NOTE - this intentionally reverts the incremental loading code from
commit 7813c5b93f. It's fast enough
here without that.

When activating an uninteresting window, the last_user_time isn't updated,
because we aren't tracking the window that the user_time gets updated on.
Hack around this by setting the last_user_time in shell_app_activate when
activating an uninteresting window.
