[gnome-contacts/store-listmodel] Use selection and filter models to list contacts




commit 29ca49010bb85fbf64d52905078fedfab2f9fa48
Author: Niels De Graef <nielsdegraef gmail com>
Date:   Fri Jan 14 11:09:10 2022 +0100

    Use selection and filter models to list contacts
    
    GTK4 added some interesting concepts on top of / in conjunction with
    list models, for example to map one list model on another by sorting
    and/or filtering. Another example is to use this with selections.
    
    This commit applies that concept to Contacts, which now uses the
    `Contacts.Store` to build a base list model on top of the
    `Folks.IndividualAggregator`, on top a sorted model (which can be
    adjusted to sort on First/Last name, and finally a filter model, to
    filter on the text in the search entry.
    
    Another reason to do this, is that it allows us to use a `Gtk.ListView`
    in the future. It's not possible to do so already due to the fact that
    we need to differentiate between "Favorites" and "Other Contacts", which
    needs extra API on Gtk.Listview side.

+ * The Contacts.Store is the base abstraction that holds all contacts (i.e.
+ * {@link Folks.Indidivual}s). Note that it also has a "quiescent" and
+ * "prepared" signal, with similar effects to those of a
+ * {@link Folks.IndividualAggregator}.
+ *
+ * Internally, the Store works with 3 list models layered on top of each other:
+ *
+ * - A base list model which contains all contacts in the
+ *   {@link Folks.IndividualAggregator}
+ * - A {@link Gtk.SortListModel}, which sorts the base model according to
+ *   first name or last name, or whatever user preference
+ * - A {@link Gtk.FilterListModel} to filter out contacts using a
+ *   {@link Folks.Query}, so a user can filter contacts with the search entry
