- switch to lumino packages - remove phosphorjs sharing Contributed on behalf of STMicroelectronics
Adapt all CSS and code to refer to lumino classes. Contributed on behalf of STMicroelectronics
- use 'iconClass' instead of 'class' in commands - only access shell handlers once they are initialized - use Lumino's host option for secondary window support - adapt tab bar handling - adapt to Iterable changes - adapt to Drag interface changes - adapt to Widget id changes Contributed on behalf of STMicroelectronics
Adds the patch for Lumino which achieves the following: - Make sure listeners are registered on the correct document. This is necessary for secondary window support. - Make sure empty menus can be opened. This is required as Theia fills menus right before they are shown, so they seem to be empty.

'@lumino/dragdrop' consumes DragEvent already at loading time. Therefore the DragEvent mock must already be available before executing the tests. Adds a new private '@theia/test-setup' dev package which is consumed in the mocha config to mock 'DragEvent' before loading and compiling tests. Contributed on behalf of STMicroelectronics

After being attached, the search-in-workspace widget tries to focus its input field. However the input field is rendered via React and might not be created yet. Adjusts the focus mechanism to wait until the input is rendered before trying to focus it. Contributed on behalf of STMicroelectronics

What it does
Migrate from PhosphorJS to Lumino
PhosphorJS is no longer actively maintained for a few years now. Lumino is an active fork, maintained by the JupyterLab community.
While PhosphorJS proved reliable for a long time, the cracks are starting to show. For example we need to patch PhosphorJS to support secondary windows.
The JupyterLab community is welcoming and is open to accept contributions.

Current state
The PR is split into separate logical commits to make the reviewing and maintenance work easier in case the PR takes longer to complete.
This PR is a draft PR as not all known issues are yet fixed.
Open issues are:
If anyone is interested in solving one or more of these issues, contact me or open a PR against the
lumino-migrationbranch in the EclipseSource fork.Note that Lumino introduced a code change in which empty menus can't be opened. However Theia uses an approach in which menus are filled only shortly before they are shown. Therefore this new behavior is for now patched in this draft PR. However this means the patching is now ALWAYS required and not only when wanting to support secondary windows.
We might want to think about contributing a change to Lumino first before requiring this for all downstream projects.
In any case this is of course a huge breaking change.
