For more obscure network configurations, we need to launch the
corresponding Settings panel with additional parameters, so we
cannot simply launch the .desktop file.
However we can do better than spawning a command line: Control center
exposes an application action we can use instead, so the process is
launched with the appropriate activation environment and startup
notification support.

Promises make asynchronous operations easier to manage, in particular
when used through the async/await syntax that allows for asynchronous
code to closely resemble synchronous one.
gjs has included a Gio._promisify() helper for a while now, which
monkey-patches methods that follow GIO's async pattern to return a
Promise when called without a callback argument.
Use that to get rid of all those GAsyncReadyCallbacks!

xgettext gained some support for template strings, and no longer
fails when encountering '/' somewhere between backticks.
Unfortunately its support is still buggy as hell, and it is now
silently dropping translatable strings, yay. I hate making the
code worse, but until xgettext really gets its shit together,
the only viable way forward seems to be to not use template
strings in any files listed in POTFILES.

Since the last commit we set the gicon property of StIcon to NULL if an
empty string was given when setting the icon name, this means
`st_icon_get_icon_name()` will return NULL instead of an empty string.
When `getIndicatorIcon()` returns an empty string, the icon_name
property will now be set to NULL, so compare it to NULL here.

Since ES5, trailing commas in arrays and object literals are valid.
We generally haven't used them so far, but they are actually a good
idea, as they make additions and removals in diffs much cleaner.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/805
ES6 allows to omit property names where they match the name of the
assigned variable, which makes code less redunant and thus cleaner.
We will soon enforce that in our eslint rules, so make sure we use
the shorthand wherever possible.

Clutter originally cluttered its namespace with key symbols, before
prefixing all symbols with KEY. We still use the unprefixed symbols
occasionally, replace them so mutter can drop the deprecated symbols.

Every since commit aa394754, StBoxLayout has supported ClutterActor's
expand/align properties in addition to the container-specific child
properties. Given that that's the only container left with a special
child meta, it's time to fully embrace the generic properties (and
eventually remove the child meta).

Remove the `this.actor = ...` and `this.actor._delegate = this` patterns in most
of classes, by inheriting all the actor container classes.
Uses interfaces when needed for making sure that multiple classes will implement
some required methods or to avoid redefining the same code multiple times.

As arrow functions have an implicit return value, an assignment of
this.foo = bar could have been intended as a this.foo === bar
comparison. To catch those errors, we will disallow these kinds
of assignments unless they are marked explicitly by an extra pair
of parentheses.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/731
We currently use no less than three different ways of indenting
object literals:
let obj1 = {
foo: 42,
bar: 23,
};
let obj2 = { foo: 42,
bar: 23 };
let obj3 = { foo: 42,
bar: 23
};
The first is the one we want to use everywhere eventually, while the
second is the most commonly used "legacy" style.
It is the third one that is most problematic, as it throws off eslint
fairly badly: It violates both the rule to have consistent line breaks
in braces as well as the indentation style of both regular and legacy
configurations.
Fortunately the third style was mostly used for tween parameters, so
is quite rare after the Tweener purge. Get rid of the remaining ones
to cut down on pre-existing eslint errors.

Those unused arguments aren't bugs - unbeknownst to eslint, they all
correspond to valid signal parameters - but they don't contribute
anything to clarity, so just remove them anyway.

Braces are optional for single-line arrow functions, but there's a
subtle difference:
Without braces, the expression is implicitly used as return value; with
braces, the function returns nothing unless there's an explicit return.
We currently reflect that in our style by only omitting braces when the
function is expected to have a return value, but that's not very obvious,
not an important differentiation to make, and not easy to express in an
automatic rule.
So just omit braces consistently as mandated by gjs' coding style.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/608
We are currently inconsistent on whether case labels share the same
indentation level as the corresponding switch statement or not. gjs
goes with the default of no additional indentation, so go along with
that.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/608
We are currently inconsistent with whether or not to put a space
after catch clauses. While the predominant style is to omit it,
that's inconsistent with the style we use for any other statement.
There's not really a good reason to stick with it, so switch to
the style gjs/eslint default to.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/607
We can use that newer method where we don't care about the actual position
of an element inside the array.
(Array.includes() and Array.indexOf() do behave differently in edge cases,
for example in the handling of NaN, but those don't matter to us)

In practice this has been seen to fail:

Make the dialog a widget itself, removing the `_group` property used for
handling the actor.
Update all the inherited classes to be also GObject implementations, moving all
the signals to proper object ones.

The interface name when a device is added may not be the final one. For
example when using USB tethering, it will first appear as 'usb0' before
being renamed to something like 'enp0s20f0u1' depending on the port the
phone is plugged in.
As a result, we will ignore the new interface name in that case and fail
to associate the correct connection with the device: Instead of the
correct "USB Ethernet" (or user-customized name), it will show up as
"Ethernet".
Fix this by updating names and connections when a device's interface
property changes.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/534
NetworkManager added support for a new device - NMDeviceWifiP2P - but
did not add the corresponding enum value in NMDeviceType. The return
value for nm_device_get_device_type() is therefore "illegal" for the
newly added device, and gjs throws an exception.
This should ultimately be fixed in libnm, but as errors when adding
one device shouldn't interfere with adding any other devices, catching
exception is a good idea anyway, so do just that.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1023
The dialog doesn't change the `destroyOnClose` property from its default,
so it is already destroyed automatically on close. So if we also destroy
it explicitly, we end up (rightfully) with one of gjs' infamous "invalid
access" warnings.
