Disable Night Light for 10 seconds. This short interruption allows you to scan a colour code (e.g. Crontosign) from your screen.

1. Why exactly 10 seconds? 2. You only allow one exact shell version.
1. The motivation for writing this extension was that I need to be able to scan a pattern with coloured dots to access my bank account. (This code looks a bit like this https://www.bcge.ch/images/crontosign-app.png ) Night light is interfering with that since the scanner device can apparently not make out the colours anymore. By trial and error I ended up with 10 s. It's kind of a short timespan; and I want Night Light back on ASAP. It's long enough to for two scans, to allow for one mistake with the scanner. I could make it configurable; but then again, I don't have a need for that and I haven't heard from anyone (yet) who would like a longer pause. 2. Okay, I need to figure out how to change that. What would you do? Allow the current version plus all future versions? I don't think I want to install old versions of Gnome shell just to test the compatibility with this small extension.
Night Light is only there since 3.26 but you can change 3.26.1 to 3.26 in metadata.json to enable the extension for all 3.26 users and not just for that specific minor version
Thanks @maweki ! I updated the shell-version and uploaded the zip again.
