gdm: Limit verification cancellations to be conform to allowed-failures
As per previous commit the user can cancel an ongoing authentication via
Escape key and that will always send the user back to the clock view in
lockscreen or user-selection view in login prompt.
However, we can be a little more permissive and don't switch view to be
able to restart the authentication without further action.
To avoid this to be abused though, we consider the user verification
cancellation via escape key to be a "soft-failure", so once the
configured "allowed-failures" gsettings value has been reached, we'd
just act as before, ignoring any further request (until we don't get
back to the user auth view).
In this way we still make brute-force attacks harder to do, while still
giving the well-behaving user some ability to fix mistakes.
authPrompt: Handle Escape key to cancel ongoing verification
Escape key is supposed to cancel a verification, however if the user
already hit Enter to begin the authentication the Escape key won't work
until the verification completed.
This may be quite inconvenient when an user did a typo while writing and
wants to cancel the already started auth.
So, while authenticating (or in general while the entry is unsensitive)
give the key focus to the authpromt itself so that we can still get the
input events and cancel an user action.
authPrompt: Don't begin a new authentication session on lockscreen cancel event
When a cancel event in the user lockscreen happens we first emit a reset
signal and immediately a cancelled one.
This lead to start a new gdm worker for each enabled authentication
method and then immediately to stop it.
As per the previous commit, we don't have anymore dangling gdm workers
around, but still we should not even start a new one in such case.
So, when the user explicitly cancelled the authentication session, first
emit a cancelled event and only emit a reset event with a begin request
if we are outside the lockscreen.
gdm: Cancel user verification on UserVerifier destruction
When we cancel an user authentication via Escape key or cancel button on
AuthPrompt we reset the view and we emit a 'cancelled' signal that leads
to destroying the auth prompt and the user verifier.
However, the verifier may still have an operation in progress and its
completion may take some time (as in the case of gdm-fingerprint), but
we just leave the gdm worker running until its pam module completes
(potentially never) clearing and disposing its handle.
So, instead of just clearing the verify, actually cancel and clear it.
In case the user verifier is set, clearing the relevant data will happen
anyway as part of the cancel() call.
Ideally this would have been handled by gdm itself, but unfortunately we
can't fix it there because the verifier itself is a class generated by
gdbus-codegen, so we can't handle this automatically on disposal nor we
can automatically monitor when the caller proxy is stopped on our side.

windowPreview: Tie icon scale to overview state
Scaling the icons all the way from/to 0 is a relatively big transition,
which is fairly distracting when playing simultaneously for multiple
previews after reaching the WINDOW_PICKER state.
Instead, tie the scale to the overview state itself, so that the animations
runs in parallel.
overviewControls: Limit Dash height to 15% of the overview's
Back when the Dash was vertical, the size of each item was calculated
solely based on the available height. After making the Dash horizontal,
this was swapped by the available width. However, when the height of the
Dash decreases, the current code results in never scaling them up ever
again.
Fix that by making ControlsManagerLayout explicitly pass the maximum Dash
sizes. Remove the 'notify::width' handler that served the same purpose.
Remove the dummy applications page that was introduced as a temporary
step. Replace the 'page-changed' and 'page-empty' signals with a 'search-active'
boolean property.
Remove ViewSelector.ViewsPage since it's now unused, and all the page handling
mechanism. At last, since we don't use any ShellStack features anymore, simply
make it a St.Widget with a ClutterBinLayout as the layout manager.

workspace: Always leave overview when in app grid state
The behavior of workspaces is different depending on whether
the overview is in window picker state, or app grid state.
When in window picker state, clicking on adjacent workspaces
should only activate them, without hiding the overview; and
clicking on the active workspace hides the overview. When in
app grid state, clicking on a workspace must always hide the
overview.
Pass the overview adjustment to Workspace, and leave overview
if the overview state is bigger than WINDOW_PICKER.
workspacesView: Interpolate against relative workspace boxes
The overview transition consists of getting the initial and final
states of the overview adjustment, derivating various other internal
states from them (such as the fit mode, opacities, translations, etc),
and finally interpolating the allocation boxes.
When interpolating between the fit mode, WorkspacesView uses the current
allocation box to derivate the SINGLE and ALL fit mode boxes. However,
that creates a curved path during overview transitions. What we really
want to do here is calculate the fit mode box relative to the corresponding
overview state. For example:
+----------------+----------+------------------------+
| Overview State | Fit Mode | Workspaces geometry |
+----------------+----------+------------------------+
| HIDDEN | SINGLE | Cover entire screen |
| WINDOW PICKER | SINGLE | Between minimap & Dash |
| APP GRID | ALL | 15% screen height |
+----------------+----------+------------------------+
Using the table above as the reference, when the overview transitions
between WINDOW PICKER and APP GRID, we must interpolate between
(SINGLE fit mode @ between minimap & Dash) and (ALL fit mode @ 15% screen
height). That way, we always interpolate the final boxes, which corrects
the odd path that workspaces follow during this transition.
Make the WorkspacesView of the primary monitor use these cached boxes
when the overview is in the middle of a transition, and the fit modes of
the initial and final state differ, to calculate the workspaces positions.
workspacesView: Use calculated workspace state for progress
It works just like before, except that this has the nice side effect
of not changing the workspace mode when leaving the overview from
the app grid state.
Move AppDisplay, WorkspacesDisplay, and ThumbnailsBox from ViewSelector to
ControlsManager. This allows to always allocate the correct size for AppDisplay,
and will enable for a plethora of further improvements. The end goal is to
completely remove ViewSelector, and let ControlsManager handle the layout of
everything that's visible in the overview.
For now, replace the apps page with a dummy actor in ViewSelector.
Adjust various callers around the codebase to not access the ViewSelector
directly from the overview anymore.
Bind the opacity of the primary workspace to WorkspaceDisplay's opacity. This
allows removing the parent opacity hack in place, which will be done by the
next commit.
viewSelector: Move 'toggle-applications-view' to ControlsManager
Move the shortcut handling into ControlsManager, and reimplement
the callback in such a way that it behaves correctly with the
current overview machinery.
Now that Overview is able to ease into any state, be it window
picker or app grid, we can move this ViewSelector method to
Overview itself, which is its rightful place to live.
Remove ViewSelector.showApps(), and make all callers call
Main.overview.show(ControlsState.APP_GRID). Also make sure the
show apps button is correctly toggled.
overivew: Propagate target state when animating to overview
Next commits will requires ControlsManager to animate to different
states, depending on how Overview is called. Add a new 'state'
parameter to ControlsManager's, and OverviewActor's animateToOverview,
and Overview.show().
Remove Workspace.zoomTo/FromOverview(), they're unused now. Rename
everything up to ControlsManager to prepareToEnter/LeaveOverview(),
since these classes don't run the animation anymore.
workspacesView: Derive workspace mode from overview state
WorkspacesView uses the floating layout when the overview is in window
picker mode, and the session layout when the overview is in app grid
mode. Up until now, the fit mode adjustment was used to derive the
workspace mode, but it is incomplete as it doesn't have the full range
of workspace states.
Make ViewSelector cascade the overview adjustment to WorkspacesDisplay,
and use the overview adjustment itself to derive the workspace mode.
Extra workspaces don't have to account for the fit mode, and thus are
basically a clamp(state, 0, 1) of the overview state. However, don't
call animateTo/FromOverview() anymore, since they ease the workspace
mode adjustment.

workspacesView: Add primary view to workspaces display
Boy, does this commit feel good.
While the workspaces view on the primary monitor *appears* as part of
the overall overview hierarchy, this hasn't actually been the case
until now. We synchronized its size and (stage) position to match
the workspaces display, but actually kept in a separate layer for
the transitions to and from the overview.
But now that the new layout manager slides out completely during the
overview transitions, the workspaces display starts out covering the
entire work area, which is exactly what we need for the transition.
So finally stop faking it, and actually make the primary workspaces
view a child of the workspaces display.
overviewControls: Ease main adjustment when animating to/from overview
Instead of delegating it to ViewSelector, make the transition to and from
overview ease the main state adjustment.
This commit temporarily breaks these animations, but on the other hand
introduces an important feature: ViewSelector is always allocated to the
actual size. This will finally allow for adding WorkspacesView as a child
of WorkspacesDisplay, and finally remove the actual geometry hack, which
is what next commit is about.
Instead of directly accessing ViewSelector and calling these methods
there, cascade the calls to OverviewActor, ControlsManager, and finally
ViewSelector. Also move the opacity transition to OverviewActor.
Currently, ActivitiesContainer reacts to showAppsButton and
transitions between app grid and window picking states on
its own. In the future, we want full control over this.
ControlsManager already has a state adjustment that represents
all possible overview states. Propagate this adjustment up to
ActivitiesContainer, and use it to drive the transition.
This requires moving the callback to the showAppsButton to
ControlsManager, since now it control the state adjustment
itself, not ActivitiesContainer's adjustment.
overviewControls/controlsManager: Use a custom layout manager
In the future, we want to tightly control the state of the
layout throught gestures, which requires hooking everything
together with adjustments. This is the first step in this
direction.
Add a new custom layout manager for ControlsManager that
allocates the search entry, the view selector, and the Dash,
vertically.

So, always use the default value for x-align that will make it to fill

Previously we used a bunch of heuristics for this. We checked if velocity
was directed towards the nearest snap point and its value was larger than
a threshold. If it is, we completed the swipe, otherwise we cancelled it.
This was good enough at the time, because this code was originally written
for back/forward swipe. Since then, the swipe tracker was extended to
handle arbitrary snap points and not just 0 and 1, or -1 and 0, depending
on text direction. After that it was iterated on, but never significantly
redone.
This worked well enough, but had two problems:
1. In some cases, notably overview, it may be wanted to be able to swipe
through multiple pages at once. This wasn't really possible because we
always picked the adjacent snap point.
2. Since we can't do that well, we want to restrict swipes to one page at a
time. It was done in a rather hacky way by clamping the position into
[-1, 1] range from the place where we started the swipe. This works
if we start the swipe from idle position, but if an animation was
already going, the range would be clamped to arbitrary values, and very
likely containing only one snap point, which we already swiped past at
this point. In this case, finishing the swipe would cancel it regardless
of velocity. This means that if one tries to quickly move through
carousel pages via swiping, half of the swipes will be inexplicably
cancelled.
We'll use the deceleration formula from
https://medium.com/@esskeetit/how-uiscrollview-works-e418adc47060#10ce
to calculate then projection point, then pick the nearest snap point and
calculate the duration as we did before. It works well enough for short
distances, but has two problems:
1. It caps the maximum distance at a pretty low value - about 5 pages in my
testing.
2. With how we pick the nearest snap point, it's too easy to accidentally
cancel the swipe,
To combat the first problem, we can modify the curve: only use linear
function at small distances, and smoothly transition it to a parabola
further.
For the second problem we can add two special cases: first, if the swipe
ended up between the initial snap point and the next one, we always prefer
the latter. Second, a good old velocity threshold for cancelling.
We'll also use a slightly smaller deceleration value for touchpad: 0.997
instead of 0.998.
Now that we can pick any snap point, the [-1, 1] clamping doesn't make
sense anymore, so instead let's replace it with a more flexible
mechanism: if we're near a snap point, pick its adjacent snap points.
Otherwise, take the two nearest snap points, and take their adjacent
snap points. This way we have 3 snap points to choose from when
starting a swipe from an idle position, and 4 if we start during an
ongoing transition.
This way, if we've just swiped from snap point n to n+1, the transition
will pick snap points n-1, n, n+1, n+2 and if we swipe again, we will
likely land on n+2. During that transition, if we swipe again, it will
likely have already passed the snap point n+1, so this time the available
snap points will be n, n+1, n+2, n+3, so we can swipe again and it will
still complete, and so on.
This will make it easy to allow multi-page swipes as well, by just
removing the clamping.
swipeTracker: Calculate velocity using scroll history
In some cases we may get anevent with very low delta at the end of the
swipe. While we can't completely ignore them, we can smooth them using a
scroll history, similarly to what GTK kinetic scrolling does: keep track
of the last 150ms of events, and sum their deltas when calculating the
velocity.
The logic is based on what GTK does in GtkGestureSwipe and
GtkEventControllerScroll.
