Since the `notify::allocation` signal will obviously get emitted while

search: Don't use max number of results if allocation width is 0
Since commit 1a27ff6130e03e64d9e426ece72a12e4e2a80f50 we use the
allocation width of the GridSearchResults actor to calculate the max
number of results that can be shown for this search provider.
On the first run of the search, when no previous (cached) allocation is
available for the actor of GridSearchResults, the allocation width used
in `_getMaxDisplayedResults` will be 0, which in turn will make
`updateSearch` filter out all results returned by the search provider.
Now if this search provider is the only search provider that's enabled,
after calling `updateSearch`, the `SearchResults` class will call
`_updateSearchProgress` to check if any results are visible, assume
nothing was found and therefore hide the scrollView. This in turn causes
the GridSearchResults actor to not get a new allocation, which prevents
our code to fixup the max number of results on `notify::allocation` from
working: The number will continue to be 0 and we'll never show any
results.
To fix this regression, return -1 in `_getMaxDisplayedResults` if the
allocation width is 0 to inform `updateSearch` that we can't calculate
the maximum number yet and interpret a return value of -1 as "show all
results" in `updateSearch`. The same problem would probably also appear
if the allocation width is anything between 0 and the width of the
iconGrid with one icon in it, although this might as well be a valid
width in case a very small screen is used or with very large icons. So
let's only check for a width of 0 and hope the GridSearchResults actor
won't get weird temporary allocations in that range.

workspace: Sort windows to minimize travel distance
When transitioning to or from the overview, windows travel
a certain distance between their real desktop position and
their place in the overview window grid. The less this travel
distance is, the smoother, more polished, and less jarring
the overall transition looks. This is why it makes sense to
try reordering and repositioning windows to minimize their
travel distance. That being said, there are other factors
that impact the quality of the overview layout, such as how
much the windows get scaled and what portion of the overall
available space they take up.
The existing code tries to minimize the travel distance by
sorting the windows in each row by their horizontal position.
There are, however, two problems with this implementation.
First, it compares the coordinates of windows' left edges as
opposed to their centers, which means it yields unexpected
results when a small window is positioned next to the left
edge of a large window. Second, it completely disregards
vertical coordinates, instead assigning windows to the grid
rows using their monotonically increasing window numbers,
effectively vertically sorting them by the order they were
created in.
This commit changes both vertical and horizontal ordering
to work based on the coordinates of the geometric centers
of the windows. That is to say, windows are first assigned
to grid rows based on the vertical coordinates of their
centers, and subsequently sorted inside each row based on
the horizontal coordinates of said centers. In my testing,
this leads to a much more intuitive and visually pleasing
window placement.
GDBusProxy::g-properties-changed is also emitted when the name drops from
the bus, at which point any properties will be null. That's not a valid
gsettings value, so to avoid the corresponding warning, move the g-name-owner
check accordingly.
Those checks were carried over from the very first DND implementation;
if they were ever actually required at all, this is no longer the case
as we moved away from Tweener for all our animations.
The number of cases where an extension is still using Tweener, creates
draggable actors, *AND* requires the checks for proper functioning
should be indistinguishable from zero, so drop the code.

environment: Add convenience method for property transitions
While we are now using implicit animations for all animatable properties,
there are still some cases where we animate other actor properties (for
example from a custom subclass) or associated objects like effects.
Those can still be animated using Clutter animations, as long as we use
the explicit API rather than implicit animations. Again this API is
cumbersome and tricky enough to warrant a convenience wrapper.
js: Use GObject properties for animated properties
Clutter animations work on GObject properties on animatables. The
last commit took care of the latter by turning all animated objects
into actor subclasses, now it's time to make all properties used
in Tweens into GObject properties.
We have a couple of places where we don't tween the actor, but a
custom property on the delegate object. In order to move those
to Clutter animations, we will need an animatable, so turn those
objects into widget subclasses.
The set_brightness() method is the most convenient way of controlling
the effect's brightness, but Clutter animations only deal with properties,
so start using the (ClutterColor) brightness property instead.
Currently WindowDimmer exposes a JS property that is used to control the
underlying effect. This works fine with Tweener, but not with Clutter
animations which we want to use ultimately.
As a first step towards that, expose a setDimmed() method instead of
the property and handle the animation internally, so it can be adapted
more easily.

applies the necessary adjustments.
Notifications use a transition that overshoots the target value, however
we can only really do that for the position and not the opacity where
some values would end up out of the valid range.
We currently address this by proxying the actual opacity property in a
javascript property, and clamp it to the valid range in an onUpdate()
callback.
This won't be an option if we want to use Clutter animations, so instead,
use separate tweens for opacity and position.

pageIndicators: Defer IN animation until redraw
Unlike Tweener, which doesn't know or care about actor state, Clutter
will skip implicit animations on actors that aren't mapped. This makes
sense of course, but it will break the page indicator animation we
do on map: When we get notified about the container being mapped, the
individual indicators (which are the actors being animated) are still
unmapped.
Resolve this by deferring the animation to a LaterFunc.
For animating the arrows on the screenshield, we currently use a custom
transition function that tweens the opacity from 0 to maxOpacity in the
first half of the animation, and from maxOpacity back to 0 in the second
half.
This doesn't easily translate to Clutter's own animation framework, so
replace the custom transition with two consecutive tweens which do.
Dash items are currently animated via the custom "childScale" and
"childOpacity" properties. However since commit efb3025d8cdb, those
properties actually control the scale-x/scale-y and opacity properties
of the actor itself (not the child), so cut out the intermediate
custom properties in favor of the "real" ones.

popupMenu: Split submenu expansion and arrow rotation
When expanding a submenu, we currently use a single tween to animate

to update the arrow's GObject property on updates. As Clutter cannot
animate random JS properties, this trick will prevent us from using
implicit animations here.
The only reason I can think of for using a single tween is to keep
both animations in perfect lock step, but as expansion and rotation
are visually quite distinct, this shouldn't be required, so just
set up separate animations for each actor.

shell-app: Consider desktop actions in can_open_new_window()
We currently only consider a remote "app.new-window" action when running,
but not a fixed "new-window" action in the .desktop file. The latter is

so add it.
We start with a dim factor of 0, so the syncEnabled() call in the
constructor will always disable the effect. Just create the effect
disabled and save the method call.
barLevel: Don't reset value on overview-start changes
While it makes sense to cap the current value to a new maximum value,
I can't think of a good reason why changing the overdrive-start should
reset the current value to that.
The time computation isn't just unnecessary in that case, it's likely
wrong as well: If we don't have a valid allocation, we may well end
up with a negative value, NaN or Infinity.
Now that redisplaying is a lightweight operation that only
adds and removes what changed, we can not be concerned about
redisplaying on folder changes.
Redisplaying will be necessary when custom order in the app
grid is implemented, in order to update not only which icons
are hidden, but also their position.
FolderView and AllView currently check if the item is
present in the BaseAppView._items map, in order to avoid
adding the same icon multiple times.
Now that BaseAppView._loadApps() has a different role --
it returns a list with all app icons, and BaseAppView
diffs with the current list of app icons -- checking the
BaseAppView._items map is wrong.
Make sure there are no duplicated items in the temporary
array returned by all _loadApps() implementations. Remove
the now unused BaseAppView.hasItem() method.
BaseAppView currently removes all icons, and readds them, every
time the list of app icons needs to be redisplayed. In order to
allow animating app icon positions in the future, however, we
cannot destroy the actors of the app icons.
Previous commits paved the way for us to do differential loading,
i.e. add only the icons that were added, and remove only what was
removed.
Make the BaseAppView effectively implement differential loading.
The BaseAppView.removeAll() method is removed, since we do not
remove all icons anymore. BaseAppView._loadApps() now returns an
array with the new apps, instead of putting them directly at the
BaseAppView lists.
Now that the three views follow the exact same loading routine
(remove all + load apps + load grid), we don't need each view
call loadGrid() directly anymore.
This is an important step in order to animate adding and removing
icons, since now we can diff old and new app icons properly.
Move all calls to BaseAppView.loadGrid() to a single one after
BaseAppView._loadApps(). Also add the underscore prefix, since
this is now considered a protected function.
frequentView: Use BaseAppView.addItem() and loadGrid()
FrequentView is another view that is slightly not unified with how
BaseAppView expects subclasses to load app icons. Instead of using
BaseAppView.addItem() and then calling BaseAppview.loadGrid(), it
adds the app icons directly to the icon grid.
Make FrequentView add icons using BaseAppview.addItem(), and load
the icons using BaseAppView.loadGrid().
Future patches will diff the old and new icons of views, in order to
animate them when necessary (e.g. adding an app icon to a folder, or
from a folder back to the app grid). In order to do that, all views
must be streamlined in how they load app icons.
Currently, FrequentView and AllView are already following the behavior
expected by BaseAppView, but FolderView isn't. Its icons are loaded by
FolderIcon, and FolderView doesn't implement BaseView._loadApps(),
which makes it impossible to diff old and new apps.
Move the app icon loading routine from FolderIcon to FolderView, by
implementing the _loadApps() method.

gnome-session can detect the former but not the latter, so communicate this
via the newly added X-GNOME-HiddenUnderSystemd key in the .desktop file.
Our current Weather integration depends on poking around the app's
settings, which we cannot do when the app is sandboxed (as its
filesystem is "hidden away" in a container in that case).
So instead, use our own GSettings schema for the settings, and sync
it with GNOME Weather via a custom D-Bus interface.
`g_object_notify()` actually takes a global lock to look up the property
by its name, which means there is a performance hit (albeit tiny) every
time this function is called. For this reason, always try to use
`g_object_notify_by_pspec()` instead.
We currently assume that user icons are square, which is the case when
set by the users settings panel, but not enforced by AccountsService.
Handle that case by moving the pixel size back to the actor and using
an appropriate background-size style property of 'cover' (which means
the smallest dimension of the image is scaled to fit the desired size).
A generic, introspectable Shader effect is not only more flexible
than a shader actor, it will also make it much easier to turn
Lightbox into an actor subclass and replace Tweener with Clutter's
