We got a shiny new screenshot UI last cycle, but only relatively
obscure ways of launching it: Keyboard shortcut or overview search.
The new quick settings provides us with a natural place to expose
the functionality more prominently, and at the same time reduce
the emptiness of the top row, in particular on systems without a
battery and when locked.

When we aren't showing the power toggle (read: on systems without
a battery), all items in the top are located on one side. Address
this by "moving" the spacer between "Settings" and "Screen Lock"
in that case to balance items a bit better.

The quick settings code was first developed in an extension, which
meant it made sense to maintain compatibility with GNOME 42 and not
use the new :icon-name convenience property.
There is no good for sticking with that for GNOME 43 as well.

Now that the old system menu has been ported over, we can move
the power toggle to its intended place. The main difference to
the stand-alone toggle is that the button now uses its natural
size rather than the fixed size of regular quick items.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2393>
This port is a bit messier than the previous ones, because the
existing menu section translates less directly to the new UI,
which uses a row of individual toggles for settings, lock and
shutdown.
In order to not complicate the grid layout further by supporting
rows with a different number of columns than the overall grid and
children at their natural size, create a custom, non-reactive
SystemItem item that spans an entire row, and contains the individual
toggles.
This works quite well, even with the shutdown item that uses a menu
for the various actions.
Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2393>
A side effect of removing the action buttons in favor of a regular
submenu is that we are a lot less constrained by size. So instead
of lumping "Restart" in with "Power Off", make it a separate menu
item.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/2202
Commit 147a743d8d moved the suspend and power-off actions into
the submenu that contains the log-out and switch-user actions,
but did not update the submenu visibility logic to account for
the additional actions.
As a result, the submenu is hidden when log-out and switch-user
are unavailable (like on the login screen), even if suspend and
power-off are enabled.

Since the orientation lock menu entry is a proper menu entry instead of
a icon-only button now, we also show a description-text for that entry,
so update this text depending on whether orientation is locked or not to
better reflect what clicking the menu entry will do.

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
While we aren't using those destructured variables, they are still useful
to document the meaning of those elements. We don't want eslint to keep
warning about them though, so mark them accordingly.
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/627
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
Commit 1b169655ac removed the system indicator from the list of children
that are considered for the overall menu width, because we do want the
log-out submenu to adapt to the available width.
However as a side effect, action buttons no longer contribute to the
width either, so if extensions add additional buttons, the menu is
likely to overflow.
Avoid this by only adding the button group to the list of size children.

ES6 finally adds standard class syntax to the language, so we can
replace our custom Lang.Class framework with the new syntax. Any
classes that inherit from GObject will need special treatment,
so limit the port to regular javascript classes for now.

In a9ad91c831, a bug was introduced in the following code:
```c
this._settingsAction.connect('clicked',
this._onSettingsClicked().bind(this));
```
Notice that the callback is being executed! This commit
fixes that by removing the '()' from the callback.
The settings action button in the system menu simply launches
gnome-control-center, so we want its icon (and accessible name)
to always match the app. So instead of keeping the button in-sync
with Settings, just look up that information from the app itself.

We can simply request the symbolic variant from CSS so that we don't
have to append '-symbolic' to all the names. This will always make
it easier to pick up that information from external sources (like
.desktop files).
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/433
When not using arrow notation with anonymous functions, we use Lang.bind()
to bind `this` to named callbacks. However since ES5, this functionality
is already provided by Function.prototype.bind() - in fact, Lang.bind()
itself uses it when no extra arguments are specified. Just use the built-in
function directly where possible, and use arrow notation in the few places
where we pass additional arguments.

In anticipation of showing the system actions in
the search results, it is fit to move action
specific code to its own module in order to
reuse it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691900
The current behavior wasn't designed, but was introduced in commit
84efaac52b to work around technical limitations when we were still
using external tools like gnome-screensaver or gnome-session-quit
to handle the actions. Those limitations are long gone, so it makes
sense to make the actions consistent with the corresponding keyboard
shortcuts: Leave the overview when launching an application, and leave
it alone otherwise.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691900
Any symbols (including class properties) that should be visible
outside the module it's defined in need to be defined as global.
For now gjs still allows the access for 'const', but get rid of
the warnings spill now by changing it.

Since commit 2c070d38, we add a ClickAction to the visible AltSwitcher
button to track long-presses. As a result, we now have two components
that will grab and ungrab the pointer for the button, so to make sure
we don't end up with a stuck grab, we need to release the second's
component grab when the first activates.
Currently we only drop the StButton grab on long-press, we also need
to cancel any initiated long-press on click.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=781738
On systems that support both shutdown and suspend, the latter operation
is currently only accessible via pressing the Alt key. As using the
keyboard may be inconvenient or simply not possible (e.g. on touch),
allow switching between alternatives via long-press as well.
