Sometimes it's necessary to convey more information about the window to screen reader users only (simply putting everything to the window title might be unnecessarily noisy).
For example, Chromium uses that technique to tell screen reader users that the window is in incognito mode (the incognito window looks differently and doesn't have «incognito» in the title, but for blind users the screen reader will announce that it's incognito).
* feat: Implement BrowserWindow.moveAbove(mediaSourceId)
BrowserWindow.{focus,blur,moveTop}() are not enough in some
situations. For example when implementing an overlay that
follows another window that can lose focus. In that case
it is useful to move the overlay above the tracked window.
sourceId is a string in the format of DesktopCapturerSource.id,
for example "window:1869:0".
Notes: Added BrowserWindow.moveAbove(mediaSourceId)

* feat: Implement BrowserWindow.getMediaSourceId
Return the Window id in the format of DesktopCapturerSource's id.
For example "window🔢0".

Notes: Added BrowserWindow.getMediaSourceId

* disable max/minimize event tests on linux, since they're broken on CI
For now it only adds the ability to place the window below
the task bar while still being always on top.
Previous behaviour was always showing the window above the task
bar when top is true. We keep this default behaviour, i.e. when
the 'level' parameter is omitted.

Notes: Can set a window always on top but behind the taskbar on Windows
It was not implemented on Mac despite being available as a constructor
option. Implementation already exists on Windows. Linux case can be
separately.
https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/19032
Notes: Implemented BrowserWindow.setFocusable on macOS.
* docs: ensure that optionality matches between documented params and signatures
* docs: ensure that all optional declarations are lower case
* chore: fix broken link
It was implemented on Mac and Win but not on X11.
Tested on Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04.
Also added a unit test in spec/api-browser-window-spec.js.
This test BrowserWindow.moveTop verifies that calling moveTop
on a window does not give the focus to this window.
notes: BrowserWindow.moveTop is now available on Linux/x11

* feat: add support for node / preloads in subframes
This feature has delibrately been built / implemented in such a way
that it has minimum impact on existing apps / code-paths.
Without enabling the new "nodeSupportInSubFrames" option basically none of this
new code will be hit.
The things that I believe need extra scrutiny are:
* Introduction of `event.reply` for IPC events and usage of `event.reply` instead of `event.sender.send()`
* Usage of `node::FreeEnvironment(env)` when the new option is enabled in order to avoid memory leaks. I have tested this quite a bit and haven't managed to cause a crash but it is still feature flagged behind the "nodeSupportInSubFrames" flag to avoid potential impact.
Closes#10569Closes#10401Closes#11868Closes#12505Closes#14035
* feat: add support preloads in subframes for sandboxed renderers
* spec: add tests for new nodeSupportInSubFrames option
* spec: fix specs for .reply and ._replyInternal for internal messages
* chore: revert change to use flag instead of environment set size
* chore: clean up subframe impl
* chore: apply suggestions from code review
