[gnome-shell] js: Add support for parental controls filtering to the desktop

[Florian Müllner <fmuellner src gnome org>]

commit 3e5b90dbba11c9782e870c2081d5037e01f4adad
Author: Philip Withnall <withnall endlessm com>
Date:   Wed Apr 24 10:37:10 2019 +0100

    js: Add support for parental controls filtering to the desktop
    
    Filter the apps shown on the desktop and in search results according to
    whether they are blacklisted by the user’s parental controls.
    
    This supports dynamically updating the filter during the user’s session.
    
    This adds an optional dependency on libmalcontent. If that’s unavailable, no
    parental controls filtering will occur.
