There are plenty of extension examples out there, no need to include
a sample extension that doesn't show-case any useful functionality
but puts additional burden on distributors to exclude it from packaged
extensions.
Ever since GNOME 3.8 when gnome-shell started to provide the window
switcher functionality itself, the extension has only existed to
change the default behavior of the alt-tab shortcut in the classic
session. Now that we achieve this behavior with a per-desktop override,
there's no longer a need for the extension, so remove it altogether.
Users who prefer the window switcher over the default app switcher
can use the regular keyboard settings to assign a shortcut to the
"Switch windows" action.

Per-desktop overrides aren't limited to keys in org.gnome.mutter, so
we can use them instead of the alternate-tab extension to default to
the window switcher in the classic session.

Meson has a strict separation of source- and build directory, and
expects anything generated in the latter. That means that in order
to maintain our current setup - shipping the generated CSS in the
repo while also optionally updating it automatically when sassc is
found - we have to fight the build system to some extent, which makes
it less reliable than we would like.
Since we switched to sassc which is a more acceptable build-time
dependency than the original ruby-based tool, just drop the CSS
from the repo and unconditionally generate it from SASS if classic
mode is enabled.

meson 0.44 features a new option type called `array` that allows
more than one string to be passed.
This feature fits perfectly the `enable_extensions` option needs,
so it has been changed to be an `array` type. the option has not
been limited to a set of choices to avoid duplication.
As a pure javascript project, building is really just a glorified
copy operation, so success doesn't even indicate that sources are
syntactically correct (a.k.a. "compile-tested"). We can at least
get some minimal testing by performing some basic syntax checking
when SpilderMonkey's JS shell is available.
