unlockDialog: Properly reset auth prompt when showing it
If a user hits escape twice really fast when coming back to
their machine to unlock it, they made end up getting presented
with a non-functional unlock screen that doesn't show their
user icon and doesn't ask for a password.
This is because showPrompt assumes that if an auth prompt already
exists, it's ready to go. That may not be true, if it's in the
process of getting torn down at the time because it's in the middle
of a cancel animation.
This commit solves the problem by ensuring the auth prompt is always
in a fresh reset state before showing it.
When commit 25bfe99ed53b5b7 replaced the thin libcanberra wrapper
with the (then) new MetaSoundPlayer API, it missed that the latter
expects files as GFile instead of a file path.
Commit dd2cd6286cd3 restricted callers of the screenshot methods to
portal implementations, gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-screenshot.
That restriction does make sense for the actual screenshot methods,
but `PickColor` is actually used by GTK in its color picker (and
therefore may be called from arbitrary applications).
Fix this by unrestricting access to `PickColor` again. Considering that
the method is always interactive, it's not very privacy/security-sensitive
anyway.
st/icon: Ensure icons are updated if theme node is invalid
Icons that are changed while an actor is not mapped may not have a theme
node associated with, and thus we'd end up not updating them at all.
In fact we return early in st_update_icon(), and this was not an issue
until commit 0b1dfbf6f3f, because we'd end up to update the icon anyways
once the style was changed (and so with a valid theme node), but since
such change we might not updating the icon if no theme detail changed.
To prevent this, add a flag to require an icon update when the theme
changed, if no successfully update happened earlier.

Always assume GLSL is supported
The support for GLSL has been advertised as unconditionally supported by
mutter for a while, and has now lost the 'GLSL' feature completely. Lets
remove the checks.
St's theme test now requires the libmutter-test library, which is only
built when tests are enabled. Instead of mandating a particular build
configuration in mutter, add a corresponding option in gnome-shell as
well.
build: Check sassc errors when generating stylesheets
We currently just call sassc, but don't check its return value. That
means as long as sassc is available, the script (and therefore the
newly added dist CI job) will succeed.

ci: Add dist job
So far, releases are done locally by invoking `meson dist`.
We can do better and leverage the existing CI infrastructure, to get
to the following release workflow:
- bump version in meson.build, update NEWS etc.
- open merge request for the release
- merge when the pipeline (including dist check) succeeds
- tag the release
- wait for the tag pipeline to spit out the tarball artifact

windowManager: Use MetaWindowActor.paint_to_content() for window effects
Previously we used `get_image()`, which returned `cairo_surface`,
in order to create a `ClutterContent` with a screenshot of the
`MetaWindowActor`. This added a roundtrip from GPU to CPU memory.
Instead, use the new `paint_to_content()` API which lets us use a
`CoglTexture` directly as source of our `ClutterContent`.

This signal announces the preferred commit mode of the preedit text when

shellDBus: Restrict callers
The org.gnome.Shell interface provides a private API to other core
components to implement desktop functionalities like Settings or

to a set of expected callers.

returning false, we can simply return that error instead of duplicating
the error handling.

shellDBus: Use MetaContext:unsafe-mode to restrict Eval()
The Eval() method is unarguably the most sensitive D-Bus method
we expose, since it allows running arbitrary code in the compositor.
It is currently tied to the `development-tools` settings that is
enabled by default. As users have become accustomed to the built-in
commands that are enabled by the same setting (restart, lg, ...),
that default cannot easily be changed.
In order to restrict the method without affecting the rather harmless
commands, guard it by the new MetaContext:unsafe-mode property instead
of the setting.
panel: Show warning indicator when unsafe-mode is on
MetaContext added an unsafe-mode property, which we will use to restrict
a number of privileged operations unless it is enabled. It is meant to
only be enabled temporarily for development/debugging purposes, so add
a scary icon to the top bar as a reminder to turn it off again.
Since touchpad smooth scroll events with source finger are handled by
the swipeTracker, the workspace scroll handler can focus on discrete
events.
Thanks to Mutter emulating discrete scroll events, see
meta_seat_impl_notify_scroll_continuous_in_impl in meta-seat-impl.c,
it is safe to ignore smooth scroll in the workspace scroll handler
and handle exclusively discrete events.
In addition, once high-resolution scroll events land in Mutter [1], a
mouse will be able generate non emulated smooth scroll events that
should be ignored in favour of the discrete scroll events.
Otherwise, a single mouse wheel click will scroll through multiple
workspaces at once.

layout: Exclude hidden actors from struts
Currently we only exclude hidden actors from the input region,

keyboard: Ensure chrome input region is updated after slide animation
The keyboard is placed outside of the screen when shown and then slides
in via a transition that changes the translate-y property. This
translation does not affect the allocation of the Keyboard actor and as
such does not trigger any of the signals LayoutManager is connected to
to update the input region. This means the input region remains at the
original position of the actor outside of the screen and as a result on
X11 clicks will go through to the underlying window.
There was a workaround for this by queuing a relayout at the end of the
transition, but this stopped working due to optimizations avoiding
unnecessary allocation changes.
This updates that workaround to toggle the visibility of the actor
instead, which is the other signal that LayoutManager reacts to. Once
ClutterActor provides better ways to react to transforms this can
hopefully be removed entirely.
Sometimes when an icon is dragged and dropped in Dash, one Favourite app icon
can appear to the right of Dash separator. This can happen when available system
resources are low and the PlaceHolder destroy animation is delayed and the
corresponding container child is still present. With this commit the separator
position is calculated correctly, even when the animation is pending.

workspace: Move fading minimized windows out of allocation
eee2ccac fixed window opacity being changed outside of transitions but
resulted in the final step of the transition, that would set the window
to fully opaque, being missed.
This change now moves the opacity change entirely out of allocation and
instead follows the adjustment changes directly, which still fixes the
original bug and ensures the opacity is also applied for the last step
in the transition.

init: Set console log domain
GJS added a console module that extensions may start using. To ensure that
extensions using console.log() and similar functions don't show up as

CI jobs to either handle or ignore it.

In libsoup 2.44 and later, you can set the session's “proxy-resolver”
property to the resolver returned by g_proxy_resolver_get_default() to
get the same effect. Note that for "plain" SoupSessions (ie, not
SoupSessionAsync or SoupSessionSync), this is done for you automatically.

new enough to handle this for us.
