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 have always defaults to an empty ornament, so that menu items
are always aligned, even when radio items are used.
However radio items are fairly rare, so most of the time we end
up with an extra margin with no purpose. The design team now
prefers radio items to only align with each other, so that regular
items get the expected margin.
Change the defaults accordingly.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2843>
Soon only radio items should use a visible ornament, to avoid
unnecessary extra margins in regular items.
Network items can act as both radio- and regular items, so
update the ornament accordingly.

Commit 9d75d777c7 introduced code to hide the subtitle of the
quick setting toggle when it matches the title of the toggle.
That's because NetworkManager tries to make the network names
more palatable on its own, and reports that the name of single
wired networks is "Wired" even if it may have another name.
What that commit failed to account for, however, is that there are
other circumstances where we end up with a subtitle is exactly the
same of the title. For example, when turning off Wi-Fi or mobile
broadband connections.
The behaviour of commit 9d75d777c7 is safe enough to be applied
on other device-backed connections, so do it.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2682>
NetworkManager frequently refreshes the list of available access points.
For some reason this often ends up removing some or all access points
only to add them back in a later refresh later. With the exception of
the currently connected access point, which is never removed.
When all access points of a WirelessNetwork have been removed, it gets
destroyed by NMWirelessDeviceItem::_removeAccessPoint(). This however
does not happen for the currently connected network due to the always
present access point. If this network now happens to consist of multiple
access points, the "unused" NMAccessPoints will get removed and added
in these refreshes, without the WirelessNetwork getting destroyed.
Whenever such an unused access point is added, due to the use of signal
tracking this leaks the NMAccessPoint and SignalTracker until the
WirelessNetwork is destroyed.
However when the NMWirelessDeviceItem is destroyed, for example due to
suspending, it stops tracking access point changes, ensuring that the
condition for the WirelessNetwork being destroyed can not occur anymore.
Even with just two access points, such as can be found in 2.4GHz+5GHz
home routers this issue leaks hundreds of NMAccessPoints and
SignalTrackers per day. As well as a small number of WirelessNetworks
which are also kept alive by the SignalTrackers.
To fix this disconnect from the access point when it gets removed and
destroy all remaining networks when the NMWirelessDeviceItem is
destroyed.

Thanks to NetworkManager's connection name disambiguation, it's
pretty common for single wired connections to be named "Wired". This
is fine and what we want almost all times, but in the specific case
of quick settings, we already have a "Wired" string set as title of
the quick settings toggle, so having that as subtitle is reduntant.
Hide the subtitle label (by returning null) when the subtitle of
a wired network matches the title.

If there is a single connection for a given NMToggle subclass,
use the connection name; otherwise, transform that into '%d
connected'. This is better than the current "Device (counter)"
template, e.g. "VPN (2)", which would give us a quick toggle
with:
VPN
VPN (2)
Change that to e.g.:
VPN
2 connected

Following the previous commits where we left the quick toggle title
open for the new title scheme, set the titles for all network pills
to what currently is the "default" name.
That means, we pull the device name from Network Manager for devices,
through the disambiguate function, and hardcode 'VPN' for VPN
connections.

Instead of map the currently active items - for whatever they are -
into the quick toggle title, bind it to the subtitle.
This leaves room for setting static titles for device-backed
networks, such as Wi-Fi, Wired, Bluetooth, etc.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2619>
We assign (disambiguated) device names every time a device is added
or removed, and store the name on the corresponding menu item.
However menu items are only created when the device should be shown,
not necessarily when it is added (unplugged ethernet cable, ongoing
initialization, ...).
Fix this by tracking device names separately from device items, and
set the name on newly created items.

If a device has multiple connections set up, then at most one of
those can be active at a time, which is why they are presented
as radio items.
In contrast, VPN connections are not mutually exclusive, each can
be turned on or off independently. Setting :radio-mode on them
currently means that VPN connections can be activated, but never
disabled.
So instead of abusing the :radio-mode property to give VPN items
the UI we want, use regular items that reflect the desired behavior
and explicitly set up the UI the way we want.

NetworkManager can check if a network interface has "internet access" by
invoking a HTTP request.
The URI used for connectivity checking in NetworkManager can be configured
manually in NetworkManager.conf:
[connectivity]
uri=http://portal-check.exmaple.com/nm-check.txt
Portal Helper provides an argument to pass the URI that should be opened.
If this argument is empty it uses http://nmcheck.gnome.org as a fallback.
Pass the URI configured in NetworkManager to Portal Helper instead of
an empty string.

We want the list to keep updating, so periodically request scans
from NetworkManager. The code follows what Settings does in its
wifi panel, including the used interval.
There's a cute little spinner in the menu header now, to indicate
an ongoing scan.

Unlike the old menu that restricted almost everything on the lock
screen, we went into the completely opposite direction with quick
settings and kept everything that does not launch windows available.
Extend that line to the network items, but still respect the
`network-control` permission.

When moving to quick settings, we will no longer have a single
parent we can hide instead.
This is only really needed for VPN - devices go away when networking
is disabled, connections (as in: configuration) do not - but it's
simpler to just handle this in the base class than adding a
_shouldBeVisible() method the VPN section can override.

If any device is in hotspot mode, use the corresponding item as
primary. Disable the (future QuickMenuToggle) menu in that case,
and turn off the hotspot when activated rather than toggling the
global wireless switch.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2408>
Wireless items represent a single adapter, but wireless connectivity
is controlled globally under NetworkManager.
So instead of delegating activation to items, bind the :checked
property to the global :wireless-enabled property and toggle it
on activate.
As any wireless devices will change their state to UNAVAILABLE
when wireless is disabled, don't remove corresponding items in
that case to keep the section visible.
We don't want to hide the button to turn Wi-Fi back on when toggled
off :-)
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2408>
Whether the device is used as a hotspot is currently only
used internally for the name and icon-name properties.
But hotspots need special treatment in the toggle as well,
so turn the method into a GObject property.

As the sections are about to turn into quick toggles, they need
to be able to perform an action on click.
Add an activate() method for that purpose, which either disconnects
all active items, or connects the primary item.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2408>
DeviceItems are sections, and therefore not actually activatable.
However when we port to quick settings, those toggles will need
to do *something*.
For that reason, provide an activate() implementation that
1. deactivates the device if currently connected
2. delegates the action to the most-recently used item,
the first visible item or the auto-connect item (in that
order)
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2408>
The primary indicator is a bit tricker than the VPN one: The source
of the binding can change depending on the connection, and we still
want to show it when there is a network connection we don't know
about (either because we don't handle the device type, or the
device isn't managed by NetworkManager).
Bindings still make the whole thing a lot nicer though.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2408>
This is the last property that will be needed by the future
betwork quick toggles.
It maps to the same item as :icon-name, except when more than one
item is active. In that case, we overrule the binding and return
a generic name and count (like "VPN (2)").
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2408>
Again no big surprise, a property that will soon correspond to the
quick toggle's icon.
It is more involved than the :checked property though, which is just
a simple boolean.
To keep it as simple as possible, we set up a binding group and use
that to bind the :icon-name property.
As state changes, we then update the group's source with the item
we deem to best represent the section as a whole at the given
moment.
That is (in that order):
- the first active item
- the most recently used item
- the top-most visible item

Instead of subclassing PopupMenuSection, it is now a plain GObject
that has a `menu` JS property.
That brings it a tad bit closer to QuickMenuToggle, which is another
GObject with a `menu` property.
We are on the final stretch now. Over the next couple of commits,
we'll add some (fake) properties so we can hook everything up,
and then it's finally time for the big switch.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2408>
Space will be less of a concern when each sections becomes its own
menu, but it's still not infinite. To address this, enable MRU
tracking and limit the list to the eight most recently used items.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2407>
Devices do not have an associated timestamp, but as we can now
track the MRU order of their connections, it makes sense to consider
the time of the most recent succesful connection the timestamp
of the device item.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2407>
We always display items sorted by name, but there are cases where a
second order by recency is interesting. Add an option to ItemSorter
to keep such a list and allow accessing it with another generator
function.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2407>
Connections have a timestamp property, which records the last time
it was succesfully activated. This is useful information to us, as
more recently used connections are likely more relevant than ones
that haven't been used for a long time (or not at all).
To make use of it in the future, expose that timestamp as a property.
Only connections support it, but we will soon provide a reasonable
value for devices as well, so add the property to the base class.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2407>
Eventually each section will turn into its own menu, which should
include a single settings item.
This also removes the odd duplication of items, now that we avoid
using submenus where possible.
In general this is straight-forward, except for modems: Some
models are now supported by a dedicated wwan panel, while others
still use the generic network one.
Address this by adding items for either panel, but only show one
at a time. The new panel is used if *any* modem is supported,
only when all modems require it, the legacy panel is used.
Hopefully that shouldn't be an issue for many users, as using many
different modems with different capabilities should be fairly rare
(except for Aleksander Morgado, but I think he can handle it)
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2407>
We currently stopped using submenus altogether, but that only works
- if there is a single connection that represents
the device as a whole
- if there is just one device, so it is unambiguous
what device items belong to
To implement that behavior, add a 'single-device-mode' property that
NMDeviceSection can set on its items, and have items update their
'use-submenu' property based on that.
For wireless devices it's a straight mapping, as its items represent
wireless networks that can appear and disappear by just walking around
(multiple wifi adapters also sounds rather fringey).
