** Description changed:

- Upstream patch: 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/3834
- (currently being upstreamed, WIP)
- 
- Impacts Noble, Plucky, Questing
- (Jammy's quicksettings menu uses a different view which this bug isn't 
applicable to.)
- 
  SRU Justification:
  
  [ Impact ]
  
  network.js passes an incorrect variable type when attempting
  to connect to an enterprise AP from the quicksettings panel.
  
- This patch corrects this behavior, allowing the panel to be
- loaded.
+ Specifically, in upstream patch d6779f34, the switch
+ to shell_app_activate_action() was made without
+ also wrapping the action parameter in an av variant.
+ This patch adjusts network.js to use the correct av
+ variant type when attempting to connect to an
+ enterprise AP from the quicksettings panel.
  
  [ Test Plan ]
  
  1. Set up a WPA or WPA2 access point. (You do not actually need a RADIUS 
server to reproduce the issue, since it occurs simply when trying to load the 
credential popup.)
  2. On your test device, click the quick-settings menu, then expand the Wi-Fi 
AP list. Select your enterprise AP
  
  [ Fix ]
  
  Adjust the variable type in network.js to match what the gnome-settings
  panel and gnome-shell actually expect
  
  [ Where problems could occur ]
  
  There should be no regressions here, since prior to this patch,
  launchSettingsPanel() was passing an invalid variable type that was
  failing a broad gnome-shell assertion, halting the desired command from
  running.
  
  Other callers of launchSettingsPanel() may be impacted by this change
  (but I would actually suspect that they'd suffer from the same issue, so
  my patch may fix those cases as well if so)
+
