Review of "Quick Lang Switch" version 10

Details Page Preview

Quickly switch keyboard language layout without showing the switcher popup. The language switcher popup by default takes ~0.7sec to appear, meaning that roughly 2-4 strokes are lost till the switch completes. This affects heavily users typing languages with non-latin based alphabets (e.g. Greek, Cyrilic, Arabic, Japanese), particularly when writting technical documents. This extension reduces the switching time to 1/10th of a second (on a 2019 PC). It fixes also focus issues with the active window.

I created this release to check if metadata is needed for the switcher to also work on lock/login screen.

1. You are not removing the key bindings on lock screen. 2. `gdm` is not allowed on ego extensions since they are not going to be installed as system extension. 3. No reason added to disable. https://gjs.guide/extensions/review-guidelines/review-guidelines.html#session-modes
