AdwAlertDialog is the recommended way to do alert/message dialogs
starting from libadwaita 1.5, and is much easier to manage than
GtkMessageDialog. (The latter is also deprecated since GTK 4.10, but
this PR does not migrate it to use GtkAlertDialog, mostly because of its
obtuse interface and that we'll remove the GtkMessageDialog code anyway
in 1.2 when we remove non-Adwaita builds.)
We also had two bugs where tabs with only one split would display the
"close surface" confirmation dialog, and windows would do the same when
closed via the "Close Window" menu item or by the `close_window` keybind
action. (The "close window" dialog only appears when the user clicks on
the close button on the titlebar.) Initially I was very confused by
this, but it turns out that we don't have any apprt action related to
closing a window, and it was simply closing surfaces...
As of now `gtk4-layer-shell` is unavailable on recent, stable releases
of many distros (Debian 12, Ubuntu 24.04, openSUSE Leap & Tumbleweed, etc.)
and outdated on many others (Nixpkgs 24.11/unstable, Fedora 41, etc.)
This is inconvenient for our users and severely limits where the quick
terminal can be used. As a result we then build gtk4-layer-shell ourselves
by default unless `--system` or `-fsys=gtk4-layer-shell` are specified.
This also allows me to add an idiomatic Zig API on top of the library
and avoiding adding even more raw C code in the GTK apprt.
Since we now build gtk4-layer-shell it should be theoretically available
on all Linux systems we target. As such, the `-Dgtk-layer-shell` build
option has been removed. This is somewhat of an experimental change as
I don't know if gtk4-layer-shell works perfectly across all distros, and
we can always add the option back if need be.
For *some* reason we have a binding for close_window but it merely closes
the surface and not the entire window. That is not only misleading but
also just wrong. Now we make a separate apprt action for close_window
that would make it show a close confirmation prompt identical to as if
the user had clicked the (X) button on the window titlebar.

This PR implements the senstive content hiding when displaying the paste
confirmation dialog in secure input mode.
Following changes are implemented:
- in the blueprint for each dialog add a show/hide button that is not
visible by default, and a Revealer that is revealed by default
- save the `secure_input` action value for each surface in the GTK apprt
- pass the value when initializing the paste confirmation dialog
- in the dialog code, alter the visibility of the content and
reveal/hide buttons based on secure input flag value
Demo:

I feel like this is already a nearly full implementation, but I'm
leaving this as a draft for now, since i need to look into blueprints
for Adwaita 1.2, and verify if it behaves properly when the dialog is in
not-sensitive input mode and in OSC52 mode.
This is my third (!) attempt at implementing localization support. By
leveraging GTK builder to do most of the `gettext` calls, I can avoid
the whole mess about missing symbols on non-glibc platforms.
Added some documentation too for contributors and translators, just for
good measure.
Supersedes #5214, resolves the GTK half of #2357

Remove the flag which reports all scrolls as discrete scrolls. This
enables precision scrolling in GTK. We have to track a flag between
continuous scroll events.

The mentioned problem occurs because when creating a new tab through the
tab overview we do not have focus on the terminal area widget, it does
not matter if we have a custom title set or not.
I think it is just safe to remove this check from the code. I've tested
the change and I don't really see a valid use case in which we would not
want to set the window title even if we don't have focus on the terminal
area.
It is possible that fonts people are using don't contain these
characters as evidenced by users in the Discord.

This implements the keybind/action portion of #5974 so that this can
have a binding and so that other apprts can respond to this and
implement it this way.
As noted in the comments, this is so that apprt's can always know what
the default size of a window would be so they can utilize this for
"return to default size" actions.
The initial size shouldn't be treated as a "resize" event and was
already documented as such. Prior to this commit the docs already noted
that the initial size may be sent multiple times but only the first time
during initialization should be used as a resize.
Therefore, this shouldn't impact prior behavior. I've verified this with
the apprts.
Using `gtk4-layer-shell` still seems like the path of least resistance,
and to my delight it pretty much Just Works. Hurrah!
This implementation could do with some further polish (e.g. animations,
which can be implemented via libadwaita's animations API, and global
shortcuts), but as a MVP it works well enough.
It even supports tabs!
Fixes#4624.
The meaning of "c" and "r" can be somewhat cryptic to non-native English
speakers as it may not be immediately obvious that "c" stands for
"columns", and "r" stands for "rows". I propose replacing them with
left-right and up-down double-headed arrows that convey the same
meaning, but in a truly language-neutral manner.

Note that for Debian 12, the blueprints must be compiled on a distro
with a newer version of `blueprint-compiler` and the raw UI XML
committed to git. Debian 12 includes `blueprint-compiler` 0.6.0 which
doesn't support compiling `adw.MessageDialog` even though the version of
`libadwaita` supports it.
There's been *far* too many people who aren't aware of the new dependency,
and that is partly our fault: a "FileNotFound" error is quite obtuse,
unless you religiously follow every PR and every commit made to the
repository. Instead of shepherding everyone who runs into this manually,
we should offer better signposting.
Fixes#5927
This doesn't fix the underlying reason that GTK sometimes reports
content scales as negative. If GTK reports a negative scale, we ignore
that and use 1.0 for the scale.
