Support GNOME 3.38

[1over137]

The extension breaks after the 3.38 update.

Can confirm this. Tried to reinstall it but no use either.

I don't know how desaturate_all works but as a temporary fix or to compare code to get it working, tint-all seems to work: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1471/tint-all/

Thanks to @YurchenkoSt to have opened a PR with the fix.

To @mirrorsonthewall and other people that will have this issue:

While the fix being review, I wrote for fun a script that will fix your extension locally using the PR branch.

You can use it to apply the fix from the branch of the PR and use it again when the PR will be merged in the main repository.

But if you don't want to download my script because you don't know me or whatever (and I swear it's readable 🙈 )
just copy/paste the following in your terminal:

cd ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/[email protected]
git remote add fix-3.8 [email protected]:YurchenkoSt/desaturate_all.git
git fetch fix-3.8
git cherry-pick eed917643610b7f930ff6a6e2ac124d7d22fc49b

(edited ps: you can thanks again YurchenkoSt to share the way to ensure you are not fetching his future hypothetical malicious code 😂)

@Jumanjii Or better yet, use the specific commit instead of the branch. That won't change and no trust will be needed 😃

@YurchenkoSt I thought about it while writing the script, but I was like, "it would still be possible to --amend" 🤦‍♂️
It's only now with a night of sleep that it appears to me that that would change the hash 😂
