This is a hack to allow `MctUserControls` to be used from `GtkBuilder`
templates, where it’s not possible to pass construct-only properties in
to the `MctUserControls` constructor. It’s not feasible to make
`MctUserControls:dbus-connection` not construct-only, because it gets
used to construct an `MctManager` which then subscribes to various
signals.
So for the cases where `MctUserControls` is used from a builder
template, the code has to connect to the system bus manually, which is
possibly (though unlikely) a blocking operation.
This fixes a critical warning when enabling parental controls in
gnome-initial-setup.

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 the user object changes one of its properties (for example, the
user’s locale might change if the administrator is editing a user in
g-c-c while viewing their parental controls in malcontent-control),
update the UI.

If the user’s locale changes, we need to update the set of entries in
the OARS menu before selecting a new one and updating the label.

On laptops which have a 1366 by 768 display, in gnome-initial-setup the
OARS dropdown is cut off by the edge of the screen. Only the first
couple entries are visible. So make it open to the right instead, where
more room is available.
Make it look more and more like a combo box. This widget really should
have been a combo box to begin with. We’re eventually going to end up
re-implementing a combo box from first principles at this rate.

The labels are too long to fit on a single line, given the default width
of the user controls widget, so allow them to wrap onto multiple lines
rather than unhelpfully ellipsising.

To make it more obvious that it triggers a drop-down menu. Potentially,
this should be a `GtkComboBox` rather than reinventing the wheel using a
`GtkMenuButton` — but that’s a change for another day.

This will be used in upcoming commits to mark switches as restricting
something when they’re active, rather than allowing something. Their
background will be red, rather than blue.

Allow the user controls widget to be used for user accounts which don’t
currently exist. This is necessary for using them in
gnome-initial-setup.
See the big new documentation comment at the top of the widget for
details of how the new semantics work.
This adds API, but does not break existing API.

This means that calling code can extract the app filter manually rather
than having to rely on the `MctUserControls` to save it. This will be
useful in a few commits’ time when support is added for using
`MctUserControls` for not-yet-created users.

If `self->user == NULL`, don’t clear the app filter, as that leaves us
in a worse-off position than before.
Rename the method to make it clearer that it queries the filter from the
user.

Make it take a `MctUserControls` rather than a member of it. This
introduces no functional changes, but will make some upcoming
refactoring easier.
Signed-off-by: Philip Withnall <withnall@endlessm.com>
Instead of taking an `ActUser` as a property of the
`MctRestrictApplicationsDialog`, take the display name which we would
have queried from it.
This will allow the restrict applications dialog to be used in
situations where an `ActUser` isn’t available, such as when setting the
parental controls for a yet-to-be-created user.
This breaks the `MctRestrictApplicationsDialog` API, but the previous
API hadn’t yet been released.

They need to be re-used in gnome-initial-setup. The other widgets which
remain in malcontent-control don’t need to be used in g-i-s so can stay
where they are for now. They might move across to libmalcontent-ui later
if there’s a need for it.
Signed-off-by: Philip Withnall <withnall@endlessm.com>
Moving the widgets out of malcontent-control means they can be reused in
other projects. In particular, I’m interested in reusing them in
gnome-initial-setup.
The new library will not build yet, but this introduces all the build
framework necessary for moving the source files over.
