We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
These settings might well ultimately be factored into a dedicated
settings manager, but until then, a charitable interpretation of
Desktop::the() as the desktop environment will suffice.
The WindowServer _really_ does not need to know the filesystem path to
it's wallpaper, and allows setting arbitrary wallpapers (those outside
of `/res/wallpapers`).
The GUI::Desktop will keep track of the path to the wallpaper (if any),
and save it to config if desired (to be persisted).
This avoids the need to `unveil` paths to the wallpaper, fixing #11158
This also adds the ability to query how many virtual desktops are
set up, and for the Taskbar to be notified when the active virtual
desktop has changed.
This sets the stage so that DisplaySettings can configure the screen
layout and set various screen resolutions in one go. It also allows
for an easy "atomic" revert of the previous settings.
This allows WindowServer to use multiple framebuffer devices and
compose the desktop with any arbitrary layout. Currently, it is assumed
that it is configured contiguous and non-overlapping, but this should
eventually be enforced.
To make rendering efficient, each window now also tracks on which
screens it needs to be rendered. This way we don't have to iterate all
the windows for each screen but instead use the same rendering loop and
then only render to the screen (or screens) that the window actually
uses.
Make the taskbar 27 pixels tall instead of 28. This makes the button
icons and applets vertically centered.
On a related note, this required touching *way* too many places..

This was done with the `ambr` search and replace tool.

This leaves menu applets running but invisible, and that's a regression
we need to take care of obviously. But not today, because it's getting
too late.
