Settings no longer exposes a slider for the keyboard brightness,
leaving keyboard shortcuts as the only way of adjusting it.
This is good enough in most cases, because devices with keyboard
backlight usually include corresponding keys on their keyboard.
However for devices without those keys, it would be good for the
settings to be exposed somewhere again. Quick settings seems like
a more appropriate place than "proper" Settings, since it gives
quick access that doesn't require a major focus change.

The keybinding is a direct, less commonly used alternative to
stand-alone 'super'. While it can be useful to have a regular
keybinding alternative - although 'super+alt+up' also provides
that to some extent - most users probably don't even know about
it's existence.
It is therefore less justified to take away a valuable shortcut
slot, so stop assigning a default shortcut to free 'super+s' for
other actions.
Users who do use the keybinding can still use Settings to assign
a shortcut.

Now that the app menu indicator is no longer shown, it shouldn't be possible
to toggle the popup menu via keyboard shortcut anymore, so remove the code
and gsettings definitions for that.

Make sure gnome-shell gets notified of errors that happen during screen
recording using the screencastService, so that it can properly notify the
user about the error and tear down its state, too.

Sandboxed apps that run without a window are detected by the new
background monitoring service, introduced by xdg-desktop-portal.
We have an opportunity to improve the predictability of the desktop
and ensure that application state in transparently reported to users
by showing these apps, and allowing them to closed.
Add a new background apps menu to the quick settings, that is always
added at the bottom of the popover, and has a slightly custom, flat
style applied to it.
Show background-running apps in this menu, and allow closing them
by first attempting to execute the 'quit' action through D-Bus, and
if that fails, sending SIGKILL to the process.

Menu toggles are currently regular toggles with an additional
arrow button. This allows for a simpler implementation, but
has downsides with regards to keyboard navigation and hover
feedback.
To make it more obvious that the two parts of the menu toggle
perform different actions, change the overall structure of the
toggle to *contain* a regular toggle and the menu button.
That way each element uses its own hover effect, and shows up
in the keynav focus chain.

Add a subtitle label to QuickToggle, with a less prominent font.
Make the subtitle invisible when no text is present.
This new property will be used by next commits to implement quick
settings with a static title, and a changing subtitle.

Currently only the org.gnome.shell.keybindings schema is marked
as child schema. There's no harm with that, it's just nice to be
consistent, and having schemas show up in `gsettings list-children`
is a nice, touch.

The on-screen keyboard only handles a single keyval per key, so the
current upper-case version of the German "ß" ends up as "S" instead
of the expected "SS".
It is possible to change the keyboard code to emulate multiple key
presses/releases for that particular case, but then luckily a proper
upper-case form exists nowadays: "ẞ".
That seems more appropriate for a single key than a dedicated "SS"
key, so replace it in all layouts that include it. Anybody who prefers
the traditional "SS" can easily tap "S" twice.
