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.

We have made good progress with transitioning to the new style,
to the point where we can complete it with a final push.
Start with changing the remaining places that still use double
quotes.

We are about to port the helper proxy to GApplication, which means
that it will establish a display connection before exporting its
D-Bus name. That means that the compositor must be able to respond
to a roundtrip request to avoid locking, so don't block on the proxy
becoming available.

This test runs all of GNOME Shell using the headless backend inside a
mocked D-Bus environment. The basic test tests, well, basic things, like
the panel menu, the overview, showing the app grid view, as well as
going back to the session view.

With meta_exit() we bypass the tear down procedures, making the test
case excercising much less code paths. Use meta_context_terminate()
instead, as that exits the main loop and goes through proper shutdown.

After porting the more complex cases - in particular those that
affect a module's API - we are left with straight-forward D-Bus
method calls that can be moved to promise-based wrappers in one
go.
For consistency, this also switches from Remote to Async where
the call result is ignored.

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.

The original scripting framework was based on SpiderMonkey's
pre-standard generators, and was simply translated to the
corresponding standard syntax when updating it to work with
recent JS versions.
We can do even better by using the standard async/await pattern
instead of generators/yield.

On Wayland, the display server is the Wayland compositor, i.e.
`gnome-shell` itself.
As a result, we cannot spawn `gnome-shell-perf-helper` before
`gnome-shell` is started, as `gnome-shell-perf-helper` needs to connect
to the display server.
So, instead of spawning `gnome-shell-perf-helper` from the perf tool,
start it from `gnome-shell` itself.

Calling await in a loop means the asynchronous operations are
run sequentially instead of in-parallel. Usually that's not
what's wanted, so eslint has a rule to warn about this.
However here we use async/await to handle control back to the
mainloop between steps, so running operations sequentially is
actually intended.

The current scripting module makes heavy use of pre-standardized
iterator/generator/promise APIs, at least for some of those support
was pulled in SpiderMonkey 58.
Port to the new standardized replacements to get the module back into
a working state.

Commit f285f2c6 changed Scripting.createTestWindow() to accept a parameter
object instead of a parameter list but forgot to remove the width and height
arguments. This breaks the "core" test as all windows are created with default
settings.
Add an option for windows created with Scripting.createTestWindow()
to continually redraw themselves; this is for testing performance
of application updates.

We don't normally hit the code in scripting.js to print metrics
because shell-perf-tool bypasses it, but there was a left-over
in the code that no longer works. Also add in the units to the
output.

This continues the series of patches for GDBus porting, affecting
all code that accesses remote DBus objects. This includes modemManager,
automount, autorun (for the hotplug sniffer), calendar, network (for
nm-applet only), power, scripting (for perf monitor interface)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648651
js2-mode is no longer developed and we recommend js-mode these days,
so switch the modelines to specify that, and make them consistent
across all files.

Remove ShellGlobal's monitor-related methods, and have
Main.layoutManager provide that information instead. Move
Main._relayout() to LayoutManager, and have other objects connect to
the layout manager's 'monitors-changed' signal to know when the screen
geometry has changed.

* Run gnome-shell-perf-helper during performance tests
* Use MUTTER_WM_CLASS_FILTER to omit all other windows
* Add new Scripting methods: createTestWindow,
waitTestWindows, destroyTestWindows
* Create a single 640x480 test window for testing overview
animation performance.

Switch from having separate METRICS and METRIC_DESCRIPTIONS objects
in a perf module to a single METRICS array. This is done so the
perf module can define the units for each metric.
In addition to improving the output in the web interface, the purpose
of having units is to give some clue about how to pick from multiple
values from different runs. In particular, with the assumption that
"noise" on the system will increase run times, for time values we want
to pick the smallest values, while for "rate" values, we want to pick
the largest value.

When SHELL_PERF_OUTPUT is set, instead of just dumping out the metrics, dump
a more complete report with:
- Event descriptions
- Metric descriptions and value
- Event log
Helper functions shell_perf_log_dump_events() and shell_perf_log_dump_log()
are added to ShellPerfLog to support this. The gnome-shell wrapper is adapted
to deal with the changed report format.
