The purpose of this commit is to remove the code from the activate() and open() functions, as well as scrap the setup_app_actions(). The new shell uses completely different code. This commit exists to help dealing with the possible conflicts when the branch is rebased on top of the current trunk.

The settings window used to be an AdwPreferenceDialog; now it's a standard AdwWindow that presents a NavigationSplitView. Reasons: 1. It has to happen anyway in order to move to multiple windows (#258, #266). The new window actually uses the proposed system: there is a Shell and it gets added to an anonymous window. 2. More options will be added soon, so more space will be needed anyway (#190, #136, #265, #268). I don't feel comfortable adding more PreferencePages, so there's that.
