`powerMonitor.querySystemIdleState` and `powerMonitor.querySystemIdleTime` had async backing APIs in chromium (https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/1379183). However, that has changed in ch73. So, this PR deprecates the old async APIs and adds new sync APIs.
* chore: refactor browser IPC into typescript
* chore: refactor app.ts into Typescript
* Refactors app.dock into cpp
* Removes app.launcher which has not existed for 3 years
* Removes 2 deprecated APIs (that have been deprecated for more than one
major)
* Refactors deprecate.ts as well
* feat: promisify webContents.savePage()
* no need to make compatible w callbacks, we're breaking it
* fix promise resolve type
* address feedback from review
* fix promise return text
* update smoke test
This PR adds Touch ID authentication support for macOS with two new `SystemPreferences` methods.
1. `systemPreferences.promptForTouchID()` returns a Promise that resolves with `true` if successful and rejects with an error message if authentication could not be completed.
2. `systemPreferences.isTouchIDAvailable()` returns a Boolean that's `true` if this device is a Mac running a supported OS that has the necessary hardware for Touch ID and `false` otherwise.
Capturing window thmubnails is expensive as it actually uses the
window capturer and it records one full frame per window and then
downscale to the default size 150x150. When only interested in the
window names or the app icons we do not need all of this.
Underlying change is merged in chromium72 so this patch only modifies
the doc, see:
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+log/72.0.3626.52/chrome/browser/media/webrtc/native_desktop_media_list.cc
Example: desktopCapturer.getSources({thumbnailSize: {width: 0, height: 0}}, ...)
Also added a unit test in spec/api-desktop-capturer-spec.js that verifies
that the returned thumbails are of type NativeImage and empty,
when the user disable fetching thumbnails.
notes: Can disable fetching the thumbnails for the DesktopCapturer.

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
