Reconsider conditions for setting language and formats

[Gunnar Hjalmarsson]

In connection with the upgrade to 0.6.50 (bug #1789502) the fallback values from /etc/default/locale were set on initialization. While that addresses some aspects of the upstream changes, a need remains to reconsider the conditions in user_change_language_authorized_cb() and user_change_formats_locale_authorized_cb(). Currently it does not take into account if variables were previously set in ~/.pam_environment or not.

I took a step further. Next upload fixes it so that the keyfile remains in sync with ~/.pam_environment, which prevents certain possible cases of inconsistency.

  * debian/patches/0010-set-language.patch:
    - Make the Language and FormatsLocale properties in the keyfile be
      in sync with ~/.pam_environment. In principle this restores the
      behavior to the state before 0.6.50 (LP: #1842349).
  * debian/patches/0016-add-input-sources-support.patch:
    - Refreshed the src/user.c chunks.
