Move the GNOME Shell extension proposed in gitify-app/gitify#3297 into its own repository so it can be reviewed and distributed through extensions.gnome.org instead of being bundled inside the Electron app. Extension changes relative to the original: - UUID is gitify@gitify.io to match the project domain. - Declares GNOME Shell 45 through 50; the ESM extension API is stable across that range. - Cancels pending placement timers when a window is unmanaged, so a window hidden before the last retry is never touched after the shell has released it. - Skips maximized, fullscreen, and zero-sized frames. - Iterates the pending map directly on disable. Tooling mirrors the main repository: Vite+ for lint and format, CI with actionlint and a bundle job, zizmor, release-please with the packed zip attached to each GitHub release, and Renovate. pnpm's built-in `pack` command shadows script names, so the bundle script is called `bundle`.

bug
Replace the GNOME-specific default with automatic, light and dark idle icon choices. Follow the Windows system theme and macOS template rendering, with an explicit light fallback on Linux. Preserve saved icon preferences and refresh immediately on preference and native theme changes without losing notification state.

@SiriusCrain can you give it a go now? I've done some testing, and I believe that this achieves the goal perfectly. I've already submitted the extension, but I am still waiting for review feedback. |

Hi, sure, what do you need help with? Install new version of extension or app build as well? |

Summary
GNOME Wayland users can install the standalone Gitify extension from System settings. Gitify no longer bundles an installer or manages the extension over IPC.
Idle tray appearance now offers Automatic, Light and Dark. Automatic uses macOS template rendering, follows the Windows system/taskbar theme, and uses a light fallback on Linux, where Electron cannot reliably report the panel appearance. Users with light Linux panels can select Dark. The selection is independent of Gitify's app theme and updates immediately; unread, offline and error states are preserved when the system theme changes. Existing saved white-icon choices and prior default behavior are migrated.
Closes #3296.
