This ports the following two function calls throughout Evolution:
• e_categories_get_list() to e_categories_dup_list()
• e_categories_get_icon_file_for() to e_categories_dup_icon_file_for()
It necessarily changes some internal e-util API:
• e_util_get_searchable_categories() to
e_util_dup_searchable_categories()
This bumps the EDS requirement to 3.13.1.

Win32 headers have a #define for 'interface', which breaks the build
when this word is used in the code, thus replace it to 'iface',
the same way as GLib or GTK+ code use to have it. (See bug #722068.)
This makes the code free of Coverity scan issues.
It is sometimes quite pedantic and expects/suggests some
coding habits, thus certain changes may look weird, but for a good
thing, I hope. The code is also tagged with Coverity scan
suppressions, to keep the code as is and hide the warning too.
Also note that Coverity treats g_return_if_fail(), g_assert() and
similar macros as unreliable, and it's true these can be disabled
during the compile time, thus it brings in other set of 'weird'
changes.
Instead of wrapping the searchbar for small screens (which looks ugly
and breaks the initial window size on large screens), hide the filter
combo box in views that would otherwise be too wide for the screen.
There's no loss of functionality when hiding the filter combo box.
It's just a set of convenient pre-defined searches, all of which can
be reproduced through the Advanced Search interface.
New functions:
e_shell_searchbar_get_filter_visible()
e_shell_searchbar_set_filter_visible()
Direct the focus away from the filter combo box so the next keyboard
event doesn't change the selected filter. The user is probably trying
to navigate search results.
This adds a "close-alert" signal to EShellWindow, which is bound to
GDK_KEY_Escape. The default handler closes view-specific alerts first,
then global alerts.
Nudging EPlugin closer to full removal.
Nothing in Evolution uses this anymore and 3rd-party plugins should be
using EShell's "event::ready-to-start" signal or else GApplication's
"startup" signal.
Evolution is still occasionally getting stuck on shutdown, and although
the evolution-shell log domain shows debug messages for activities that
are preventing shutdown, they frequently look like this:
(evolution:13534): evolution-shell-DEBUG: 5 active 'mail' activities:
(evolution:13534): evolution-shell-DEBUG: * (no description)
(evolution:13534): evolution-shell-DEBUG: * (no description)
(evolution:13534): evolution-shell-DEBUG: * (no description)
(evolution:13534): evolution-shell-DEBUG: * (no description)
(evolution:13534): evolution-shell-DEBUG: * (no description)
I think the lack of descriptions is from CamelOperations popping all
their pushed messages, which is correct behavior but doesn't help us
debug the problem.
e_activity_get_last_known_text() returns the most recent _non-empty_
text value set on the EActivity. So our debug message can fall back
to that if the EActivity has no description at shutdown:
(evolution:13534): evolution-shell-DEBUG: * (was "blah, blah, blah")
gal_view_collection_new() now takes system and user directory arguments
and loads GalViews during instance initialization.
Removed functions:
gal_view_collection_set_storage_directories()
gal_view_collection_load()
gal_view_collection_loaded()
EShellView no longer needs help from subclasses other than getting
the needed GalView subclasses registered.
A nice side-effect of this is EShellView subclasses can now use the
G_DEFINE_DYNAMIC_TYPE macro.
The "Define Views" dialog is nearly useless. Replace it with a "Delete
Current View" menu item which is only visible for custom views that have
been explicitly saved under a new name.
There's actually no loss of functionality with this commit. Although
some view management tasks now require more clicks, view management in
general is a seldom-used feature and I doubt the dialog's absence will
even be noticed by users, much less missed.
EShellView now holds a reference to the active GalViewInstance. Where
applicable, the EShellView subclass is responsible for keeping this up
to date when the sidebar selection changes.
Holding a reference allows EShellView to implement common actions like
"Save Current View" directly instead pushing it on to subclasses.
New functions:
e_shell_view_get_view_instance
e_shell_view_set_view_instance
This fixes a bug in the old implementation where the application could
crash after a second shell window was created and destroyed, because a
signal handler with the destroyed shell window as the closure was left
connected.
But moreover this simplifies the implementation by using a property
binding plus transform function instead of juggling signal handlers,
and also adds code comments where things get a little tricky.
Removed (now unused) functions:
e_shell_window_get_toolbar_new_prefer_item
e_shell_window_set_toolbar_new_prefer_item
As discussed recently on the users mailing list [1], there's a strong
precedent among GTK+ applications for F9 to toggle sidebar visibility.
Examples cited were Nautilus, Evince, Totem, Rhythmbox, File-Roller
and gThumb.
Change the Send/Receive accelerator from F9 to F12, and designate F9
as the accelerator for View->Layout->Show Side Bar.

Log debug messages for outstanding activities during shutdown to
help investigate stuck shutdown issues.
Enable this feature with: G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=evolution-shell
Use g_signal_connect_data() to automatically release the EActivity when
the signal handler is disconnected, and keep the handler ID internally.
This is cleaner than using g_signal_handlers_disconnect_by_func().
Mimicing Colin's commit fb9b02e for E-D-S.
We can't do (cd $(srcdir); ...) and inside reference $(top_srcdir)
because that variable uses a *relative* path. Thus we copy the
approach from gnome-shell of explicitly using addprefix to append
the source directory.
