This causes the controls on the main window to be centred at their full
width (when there’s enough window width to do so), rather than expanding
to fill the entire window.
It’s not currently possible with GTK+3 to easily set a maximum width
(of, say, 600px) to the column, without writing a custom widget (like
`HdyColumn` does).

Get the system bus higher up in the application, so the same system bus
connection can be shared between different parts of the application if
needed in future.
This also means the synchronous I/O needed to connect to the bus is done
before the application UI is shown, which prevents it unnecessarily
blocking initialisation of the `MctUserControls` widget.

When malcontent-control is run as an unprivileged user (i.e. a child)
the fact that the unlock wording refers to ‘other users’ is a little
confusing, since the purpose of running malcontent-control was likely to
edit the parental controls for *this* user.
Adjust the wording to make this a little clearer.

Children can’t be administrator accounts, otherwise applying parental
controls to them would be pointless and ineffective. So hide the
administrator accounts from the parental controls app.

Add an unlock screen to the application, which is shown on startup if
the current user doesn’t have permission to view the parental controls
of other users. It requests permission using a new polkit action which
implies the various accounts-service actions we need.
This adds a dependency on `polkit-gobject-1`.

A fairly arbitrary decision which seems to match the new controls a bit
better, removing the large whitespace gap at the bottom of the window.

This replicates the old interface from Endless’ gnome-control-center,
with no attempt to improve or rework it. That will come later.
It might not work fully.
It allows a user to be selected, and their parental controls to be
changed. It currently doesn’t filter the users.
It supports a simple ‘Loading’ screen, before displaying the main
interface. If loading fails (due to a D-Bus error with accountsservice),
an error page is displayed instead.
