Bug Description
[Impact]
At the login screen (gdm) the a11y menu has a number of options, such as large text, screen reader etc. If you turn on screen reader you can then hover over the menu items and they will be read to you.
If you hover over an option that is enabled, the screen reader will tell you, for example:
Screen reader. TICKED
The entry in the menu item should have a tick next to it.
This is what happens using the default GNOME theme.
[Test Case]
1. Install new version from proposed
2. Reboot your laptop
3. Check the accessibility menu in the login screen (GDM) and ensure you have ticks near the label
4. Login and check there is no regression.
5. For bonus point, you can try GDM using vanilla gnome-shell theme by sudo update-alternatives --config gdm3.css + a reboot and GNOME Shell vanilla session (apt install gnome-session + select GNOME session on login screen)
[Regression Potential]
The new function exposed to gjs is calling realpath and is idempotent: it returns the filename given as a parameter on any error, or the realpath() result if there is any result, not changing the fundamental logic.
If there was a regression, the Shell wouldn't even load.
By checking the 5. point, we are checking we didn't impact gresources.
