menu applet: Make sure the menu is fully reset when the search entry
is cleared (thru any means) and don't let the favorites Del key handler
steal keystrokes from an active search.

this.lastSelectedCategory is initialized to null. Set our category to
a dummy 'search' when a search begins, so _select_category(null)
completes properly when the search is cleared, instead of comparing null
and returning early.

Fixes #7764

ignore streams created by sound effects and a11y utilities, and don't

cinnamon-settings-users.py: fix symlink attack vulnerability

This script runs as root and allows to configure e.g. other user's icon
files. These icon files are written to the respective user's $HOME/.face
location. If an unprivileged user prepares a symlink pointing to an
arbitrary location then this location will be overwritten with the icon
content. This vulnerability thus allows to corrupt the system or other
user's files. The content is not attacker controlled, luckily.

This change introduces temporary privilege drops to the target user's
privileges before attempting to write the respective .face files. This
way the kernel can decide if permissions are okay or not.
