remoteAccess: Hide indicator after a timeout

Jonas Ådahl requested to merge jadahl/gnome-shell:wip/remote-access-timeout into main

In order to make very short screen capture sessions more visible, let the indicator remain visible, but a bit greyed out, for some seconds. This makes it more obvious something was just capturing the screen.

Something that was discussed on IRC at some point. These ultra short lived screen captures will be possible now that the portal can remember recording sessions. There are some things to consider:

  • Do we want this?
  • Do we want to skip this timeout if the indicator was already visible for N seconds?
  • What to do with the menu? Now it's hidden immediately.
