[Bug 1887312] Re: [SRU] Cinnamon session doesn't shutdown until all apps close regardless if they act to Cinnamon's logout request

Okay, here changes the Bug and Bug-Ubuntu fields.

The whtiespaces are whitespace removals, so I think we can keep it.

Title:
  [SRU] Cinnamon session doesn't shutdown until all apps close
  regardless if they act to Cinnamon's logout request

Status in cinnamon-session package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in cinnamon-session source package in Focal:
  New

Bug description:
  Reference to upstream commit:  csm-manager.c: Don't let programs that
  exit without responding to cinnamon-session's request delay the
  shutdown.

  This fixes the following issue:
  https://github.com/linuxmint/cinnamon/issues/3752

  SRU TEMPLATE:

  [Impact]

   * When Cinnamon is exiting, it will wait for apps to close before it shutsdown.
  * Using normal shutdown procedures it can be overwritten (e.g. shutdown -a)  and will save time.
  * The commit upstream removes delay in Cinnamon Session shutdown.

  [Test Case]

   * Open an app that requires time to shutdown-e.g. Steam.
   * Shut down and look for the time that it takes to shutdown.
   * Force shutdown Cinnamon from terminal
   * Notice it takes no time to shutdown.

  [Regression Potential]

   * Regression is nearly impossible due to this coming from upstream,
  and the new versions in Groovy. Development will probably still
  continue through patches.

   * This is also something GNOME from upstream patched.

   * Regression could be possible if things such as memory/RAM speed
  change or an update of Cinnamon (such as muffin Window Manager) occur
  overtime.

   * As new apps come by and it takes time to actually safely close the
  applications, this can cause possible lag and unsafe possible
  corruption but this is very unlikely.

  [Other Info]

   * The bug patch is from upstream (see the commit that closed the issue above)
   * This is part of the bug fixes in cinnamon-session upstream.

  An SRU is strongly recommended. Above is the template. Debdiff will be
  applied in comments.
