`toLocaleFormat` is now `formatDateWithCFormatString` and formatTime and
formatTimeSpan are moved into dateUtils.
Instead of overriding system.clearDateCaches, add a helper in dateUtils.

Now that scripts are loaded as external modules, there's no reason
anymore for bundling them with the gnome-shell executable. Just
move the scripts into a dedicated folder in tests/ and run them
from there.

Environment variables aren't the best option to pass parameters
to a process (wouldn't it be "fun" if SHELL_PERF_MODULE appeared
in a regular user session?).
Instead, use a (hidden) --automation-script command line flag to
specify a script file that should be used to drive an automated
session.
As a side effect, the script no longer has to be relative to the
main module itself, so it will be possible to run scripts that
aren't bundled with the shell sources.

The perf scripts that can be used to script the gnome-shell UI
for testing are sufficiently separate from the rest of the code
base to allow porting them to ESM modules before the rest of
the code base.

The file indicates to the systemd shutdown scripts that extensions
should be disabled, so that extensions that crash the shell on
startup cannot lock out the user indefinitely.
For that purpose, we create the file before initializing extensions,
and remove it after 60 seconds. That generally works, because it's
highly unlikely that a session genuinely ends within the first minute.
It's possible though (for example during developments or when running
tests), so also remove the file when shutting down cleanly before
the timeout.

Now that extensions themselves are imported as modules, do the
same for their preference dialogs.
Extensions must now export a class with a `fillPreferencesWindow()`
method as default.

Continue the move to ESM by loading modules dynamically with
the standard import() expression, rather than by installing a
custom (legacy) importer.
This is a breaking change that affects all extensions, as they
now need to explicitly export the expected symbols.
As we are already breaking all extensions, take that opportunity
and remove support for the individual entry points: Using a
class with enable()/disable() methods has been the recommended
pattern for a long time, it is now the only entry point.
Instead of instantiating the class from an `init()` function,
the class must now be exported as default to be recognized.
Additionally, we no longer install an importer on the extension
object, so extensions that consist of more than one file MUST
import those files as modules now.
There will be a second breaking change for extensions when
gnome-shell's own code is ported to ESM, so most extension
developers will likely want to wait until the port is complete
before starting to port their extensions.
Based on a commit from Evan Welsh.

We want to replace gjs' custom (and now legacy) imports system
with standard EcmaScript modules: JS developers are already
familiar with them, they have better tooling support and using
standard features over non-standard ones is generally the right
thing to do.
Our D-Bus services are separate from the main process, and thus
can be ported separately (except for the few imports that are
shared with the main process' code base).

We currently special-case the DISABLED error when initializing
filtering, but not on app filter changes.
While it seems reasonable that Malcontent.Manager wouldn't emit
the signal while disabled, that's not actually true: It is emitted
when any user account information tracked by AccountsServices
changes.
Even if the signal were limited to changes of the ParentalControls
extension, it would still get emitted when app filtering *becomes*
disabled.
So regardless of potential improvements in libmalcontent itself,
we should filter out the DISABLED consistently, both when creating
the initial filter and when updating it.

Commit c449058d44 changed the pointer clone to use a single
actor. However that broke applying the hotspot translation to the
position, so the magnified cursor is now displayed with a shift.
Undo the change to restore the old behavior.
This reverts commit c449058d44.

gjs now has an internal mainloop that it can spin to resolve
module imports. That loop uses the thread default context,
so its possible that other sources, namely from mutter, get
dispatched when iterating the context. If that happens before
mutter is properly initialized, this will lead to a crash.
GjsContext needs to iterate its internal mainloop when initializing
to resolve internal modules, to avoid iterating Meta's mainloop and
triggering events before Meta is ready we will initialize the Shell
global and thus the GjsContext (js_context) before Meta.
Once GjsContext is initialized, we can call meta_context_setup().
Once Meta is setup and started, we'll run init.js which uses GJS'
internal promises API to set a "mainloop hook". The mainloop hook
is run immediately after the module returns so GJS will not attempt
to iterate the main loop again before exiting.
Also adjust the 'headlessStart' test to not wait for the
MetaContext::started signal, as that signal has now already
been emitted when the code is executed.

get_size() in _syncAnimationSize() can't be called until the actor
has a parent, otherwise we'll get an error for calling
st_get_theme_node() prior to the actor being on a stage.
_syncAnimationSize() is called asynchronously via
textureCache.load_sliced_image() and there is currently no guarantee
the actor will actually be "loaded" prior to calling it.
This becomes a more obvious error/issue when refactoring parts of the
Shell loading to also be asynchronous.

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.

Now that we track apps instead of instances, we can make the menu
items activatable, because the corresponding action is no longer
app specific (like activating a particular tab): We can simply
activate the app, which hopefully will bring it to the foreground
again.

The background apps menu currently tracks instances rather than
apps. That matches the behavior of `flatpak ps` and can be useful,
for example when one particular instance runs out of control.
But as we don't include any information that allows to actually
distinguish between instances, multiple instances appear simply
as duplicated app entries.
Given that a menu is too limited for detailed information, stop
representing individual instances, and track apps instead.

Provide a reasonably public way to register and unregister search
providers, without adding too much API.
`Main.overview.searchController` provides access that may be generally
useful, while `SearchController.addProvider()` and
`SearchController.removeProvider()` provide a simple interface for
extensions.

We started to support Soup3 in GNOME 41, and used it by default
since GNOME 43. This should be enough time for distros to adapt,
so GNOME 45 looks like a good moment to drop the old Soup2 support.

Since we started to support the color-scheme preference, extensions
should be able to provide appropriate variants (if they deal with
colors).
So look for a variant with -dark/-light suffix before using the
plain stylesheet.css, and reload extension stylesheets on
color scheme changes.

The IBusCandidatePopup can get 'stuck' in an active, visible state if
it is on-screen at the point when the input method is changed to a method
that doesn't use such popup (e.g. regular English).
Force the candidate popup to close when the engine is changed.
It will reappear (via regular lookup table update signal) if/when it is
next required.

Calling _teardownPipeline() before _tryNextPipeline() was actually not a
good idea, it sets the pipelineState to STOPPED, which means we can't try
any of the following pipelines anymore.
Instead what we want to do is set the pipeline state of the old pipeline to
NULL when trying a new one, without calling _teardownPipeline() for that.

This pipeline imports dmabufs and does format conversion using GL.
The `video/x-raw(memory:DMABuf)` filter ensures format negotiation
between `pipewiresrc` and Mutter will only succeed if Mutter advertises
dmabuf support as well, falling back to the next pipeline otherwise.
Using this pipeline frees Mutter from downloading buffer content on the
main thread which can have a big impact on compositor performance.
Doing format conversion on the GPU should further improve the overall
performance on most hardware.
