Instead of hardcoding /var/tmp when temporarily downloading layer
tarballs, support overriding with a FLATPAK_DOWNLOAD_TMPDIR
environment variable.
We don't use TMPDIR because the layer tarballs can be very big
(in extreme cases like an SDK > 1GB), and TMPDIR is more
likely to point to a in-memory tmpfs.
Now that we read remotes from $datadir/flatpaks/remotes.d as well as
/etc/flatpaks/remotes.d, we should have a mechanism to redirect this, as
we do for almost all other filesystem path locations.
To avoid an explosion of new variables, we introduce FLATPAK_DATA_DIR to
represent configuration that ships with the operating system.
This is useful:
- To fix sandboxing of tests
- When installing using flatpak into a chroot, so that we read
the chroot's configuration rather than the host.
It also is used when reading triggers, but the current
FLATPAK_TRIGGERSDIR is left for compatibility.

Following on systemd adopting the progress OSC that ConEmu and Windows
Terminal use, this exports the progress percentage to the terminal
emulator.
VTE also has support for this in the upcoming 0.80 release and is used
by Ptyxis to display progress in the tab widget.
As described in #5614, `WAYLAND_SOCKET` provides a single-use socket
as a file descriptor, which some Wayland compositors use to track
special-purpose Wayland clients like input methods and panels.
Since #5615, there are two cases for how it works:
1. With `--nosocket=inherit-wayland-socket` (default): the file
descriptor is marked close-on-exec so that the sandboxed app does
not inherit it, and the `WAYLAND_SOCKET` environment variable
becomes unset. Every time the sandboxed app connects to Wayland,
because `WAYLAND_SOCKET` is unset, it will fall back to the ordinary,
public `WAYLAND_DISPLAY`.
2. With `--socket=inherit-wayland-socket`: the file descriptor is
allowed to be inherited, and the environment variable continues
to be set. The first time the sandboxed app connects to Wayland,
it will connect to the `WAYLAND_SOCKET`. The second and subsequent
connection attempts will be to the ordinary `WAYLAND_DISPLAY`.
However, when #4920 added a code path for the Wayland security-context-v1
interface, it was implemented as a completely separate code path which
early-returned from flatpak_run_add_wayland_args() before the point
where #5615 subsequently added the implementation for (1.). The practical
result of this is that if the compositor sets `WAYLAND_SOCKET` for
a Flatpak app, and it also happens to implement security-context-v1,
then the application will always inherit the `WAYLAND_SOCKET` as though
`--socket=inherit-wayland-socket` had been used. In this case, the app's
first connection to Wayland will use the `WAYLAND_SOCKET` (bypassing
the security context mechanism), the same as in compositors that do not
implement security-context-v1 at all, and only the second and subsequent
connections will use the special per-app `WAYLAND_DISPLAY` created by the
security context mechanism. This seems likely to be unexpected.
To give maintainers and users a choice between behaviours (1.) and (2.),
we can put the security-context-v1 code path through the same code to
handle `WAYLAND_SOCKET` that is used for Wayland compositors that do not
implement that interface. This means that
`--nosocket=inherit-wayland-socket` disables `WAYLAND_SOCKET` in all
cases: if the compositor supports security-context-v1 and the feature
was also available when Flatpak was compiled, then all of the sandboxed
app's Wayland connections will be to the per-app `WAYLAND_DISPLAY`
created by security-context-v1, and otherwise all of the sandboxed app's
Wayland connections will be to the ordinary, public `WAYLAND_DISPLAY`.
With `--socket=inherit-wayland-socket`, the sandboxed app's
first connection to Wayland will continue to be to the inherited
`WAYLAND_SOCKET` fd, and the second and subsequent connections will
be to the `WAYLAND_DISPLAY`, which might either be the special per-app
version created by security-context-v1, or the ordinary public version.

In the older code path where we were not using Wayland security contexts,
we would try to preserve the name of the Wayland display socket
(`$WAYLAND_DISPLAY`), only falling back to `wayland-0` if the name was
something unconventional (contains `/` or does not start with `wayland-`).
This means that in practice, apps could often successfully use a value
of `$WAYLAND_DISPLAY` from the wrong "world" - for example reading the
value used outside the sandbox from a file in code that runs inside the
sandbox, or conversely, passing the value used inside the sandbox via
IPC to a service like gpg-agent outside the sandbox.
However, the implementation in
flatpak_run_add_wayland_security_context_args() did not do this, and
instead would unconditionally use `wayland-0`. There's no real need to
enforce use of that name.
Apps should not really be passing the string value of `WAYLAND_DISPLAY`
across a sandbox boundary, but in practice some do, and we will get
better interoperability if we try to keep that working in at least the
simple cases. This is similar in spirit to how we have handled X11
since 2022 (flatpak/flatpak#5034).
For now, we skip the last few lines of flatpak_run_add_wayland_args() if
we are using Wayland security contexts, to preserve existing
functionality. A subsequent commit will revisit that.

apply_extra_data() passes a null instance ID to
flatpak_run_add_environment_args(), causing a segfault in
flatpak_run_in_transient_unit() which assumes the instance ID is non-null.
Revert this for now: flatpak#5962 was non-essential, and we can redo it
in a less crashy way later.
This reverts commit 7d6f3e8b6b.

We add the component name as part of the fallback search.
Before this patch, queries as
flatpak search Element
or
flatpak search d-spy
return no results even though the search term coincides with the
application name.
Add '--usb' and '--nousb' to the FlatpakContext option group.
Map these parameters to either the enumarable list, or the hidden
list, of a new "USB Devices" group in the metadata key file. It looks
like this:
```
[USB Devices]
hidden-devices=cls:01:*;
enumerable-devices=vnd:0fd9+dev:0080;vnd:0fd9+dev:0080;
```
Flatpak itself does not use these values, they're meant to be used
by e.g. XDG Desktop Portal to filter which devices the app can see
through the USB portal.
Hidden devices must always take precedence over enumerable devices.
This is heavily inspired by https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/pull/4083

The systemd Desktop Environments conventions for cgroup names is
app[-<launcher>]-<ApplicationID>[@<RANDOM>].service
where RANDOM should ensure that multiple instances of the application
can be launched. Currently flatpak uses the PID of itself but the
instance fullfills this convention and is a bit more useful for matching
the cgroup to a flatpak instance.
For historical reasons g_qsort_with_data() "only" works with up to 2**31
items, so it won't necessarily work for pathologically large arrays
and therefore is deprecated.
One advantage of g_qsort_with_data() and its replacement g_sort_array()
is that GLib guarantees that they are a stable sort (will not permute
items that already compare equal), which is not a guarantee for glibc's
qsort() and qsort_r(). However, I don't think it's actually relevant
whether we are doing a stable sort in any of these places: most of the
time we are sorting an array of unique items (often the keys of a hash
table, which are necessarily unique), therefore the compare function
will not compare equal in any case.
Another advantage of the GLib functions is that they are portable,
unlike qsort_r(). However, Flatpak is Linux-only, so we can freely use
useful functions like qsort_r().

KDE krunner supports DBus plugins that allow search completion
comparable to the already supported gnome-shell searchprovider.
Exporting the contents of the runner directory enables us to enable
search results from within flatpack applications.
The original intention was to add 'sandbox-a11y-own-names', which would
match the prefix of other arguments, and it's what was documented in the
D-Bus XML and in flatpak-spawn too.

We now resolve the zoneinfo and always make it available at
/usr/share/zoneinfo in the sandbox so we unset TZDIR to get flatpak apps
looking at the right directory.
We seem to have no interest in the specific error, as we are using it
locally just to "return". So there's no point in having the error in
the first place. In consequence, the error is only used in the loop
and can be declared locally to it.
This is more compliant with FHS specification. Most notably, /etc
is not appropriate to hold distro configuration, which is a common
use for the remotes.d feature. It is better practice to put things
under /usr/share, and let the system administrator modify /etc to
their will, of course giving them priority.
Update documentation to reflect this change.
In the process, move to use g_build_filename
Because flatpak_get_real_xdg_runtime_dir() return an allocated string
we have to return strduped.

Commit f268f4a870 that changed
flatpak_resolve_matching_remotes() to automatically pick the remote if
it's the only matching one, missed an opportunity to clean up the rest
of the function.
Now that `remote_dir_pairs->len == 1` is handled as a first case, we can
drop the old, dead code that handled it differently, and simplify the
nested conditionals.
