There was a propType error shown on the snap install screen about the
`name` property of `targetSubjectMetadata` being missing despite it
being marked as required. This property should not have been required,
it does not always exist.
# Permission System 2.0
## Background
This PR migrates the extension permission system to [the new `PermissionController`](https://github.com/MetaMask/snaps-skunkworks/tree/main/packages/controllers/src/permissions).
The original permission system, based on [`rpc-cap`](https://github.com/MetaMask/rpc-cap), introduced [`ZCAP-LD`](https://w3c-ccg.github.io/zcap-ld/)-like permissions to our JSON-RPC stack.
We used it to [implement](https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/pull/7004) what we called "LoginPerSite" in [version 7.7.0](https://github.com/MetaMask/metamask-extension/releases/tag/v7.7.0) of the extension, which enabled the user to choose which accounts, if any, should be exposed to each dapp.
While that was a worthwhile feature in and of itself, we wanted a permission _system_ in order to enable everything we are going to with Snaps.
Unfortunately, the original permission system was difficult to use, and necessitated the creation of the original `PermissionsController` (note the "s"), which was more or less a wrapper for `rpc-cap`.
With this PR, we shake off the yoke of the original permission system, in favor of the modular, self-contained, ergonomic, and more mature permission system 2.0.
Note that [the `PermissionController` readme](https://github.com/MetaMask/snaps-skunkworks/tree/main/packages/controllers/src/permissions/README.md) explains how the new permission system works.
The `PermissionController` and `SubjectMetadataController` are currently shipped via `@metamask/snap-controllers`. This is a temporary state of affairs, and we'll move them to `@metamask/controllers` once they've landed in prod.
## Changes in Detail
First, the changes in this PR are not as big as they seem. Roughly half of the additions in this PR are fixtures in the test for the new migration (number 68), and a significant portion of the remaining ~2500 lines are due to find-and-replace changes in other test fixtures and UI files.
- The extension `PermissionsController` has been deleted, and completely replaced with the new `PermissionController` from [`@metamask/snap-controllers`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@metamask/snap-controllers).
- The original `PermissionsController` "domain metadata" functionality is now managed by the new `SubjectMetadataController`, also from [`@metamask/snap-controllers`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@metamask/snap-controllers).
- The permission activity and history log controller has been renamed `PermissionLogController` and has its own top-level state key, but is otherwise functionally equivalent to the existing implementation.
- Migration number 68 has been added to account for the new state changes.
- The tests in `app/scripts/controllers/permissions` have been migrated from `mocha` to `jest`.
Reviewers should focus their attention on the following files:
- `app/scripts/`
- `metamask-controller.js`
- This is where most of the integration work for the new `PermissionController` occurs.
Some functions that were internal to the original controller were moved here.
- `controllers/permissions/`
- `selectors.js`
- These selectors are for `ControllerMessenger` selector subscriptions. The actual subscriptions occur in `metamask-controller.js`. See the `ControllerMessenger` implementation for details.
- `specifications.js`
- The caveat and permission specifications are required by the new `PermissionController`, and are used to specify the `eth_accounts` permission and its JSON-RPC method implementation.
See the `PermissionController` readme for details.
- `migrations/068.js`
- The new state should be cross-referenced with the controllers that manage it.
The accompanying tests should also be thoroughly reviewed.
Some files may appear new but have just moved and/or been renamed:
- `app/scripts/lib/rpc-method-middleware/handlers/request-accounts.js`
- This was previously implemented in `controllers/permissions/permissionsMethodMiddleware.js`.
- `test/mocks/permissions.js`
- A truncated version of `test/mocks/permission-controller.js`.

The designs for the connect flow show the site `origin` below the site
icon rather than the site name. This was done for security reasons,
and because the site name is often set to an unwieldy long string.
This was accidentally undone in #8815 in the process of fixing a
separate bug. The origin has now been restored. More specific PropTypes
have been set on each use of the `domainMetadata` prop as well.
This reverts commit 466ece4588, which has
the message:
"Revert "Merge pull request #7599 from MetaMask/Version-v7.7.0" (#7648)"

message has "MetaMask" in it. Preserving these messages without
"MetaMask" is probably better than deleting them, so these messages
have all been restored and renamed to `likeToConnect`.

Co-Authored-By: Mark Stacey <markjstacey@gmail.com>
* Improve disconnectAccount modal message clarity
* Adds cancel button to the account selection screen of the permissions request flow (#7613)
* Fix eth_accounts permission language & selectability (#7614)
* fix eth_accounts language & selectability
* fix MetaMask capitalization in all messages
* Close sidebar when opening connected sites (#7611)
The 'Connected Sites' button in the accounts details now closes the
sidebar, if it is open. This was accomplished by pulling the click
handler for that button up to the wallet view component, where another
button already followed a similar pattern of closing the sidebar.
It seemed confusing to me that one handler was in the `AccountsDetails`
container component, and one was handed down from above, so I added
PropTypes to the container component.
I'm not sure that the WalletView component is the best place for this
logic, but I've put it there for now to be consistent with the add
token button.
* Reject permissions request upon tab close (#7618)
Permissions requests are now rejected when the page is closed. This
only applies to the full-screen view, as that is the view permission
requests should be handled in. The case where the user deals with the
request through a different view is handled in #7617
* Handle tab update failure (#7619)
`extension.tabs.update` can sometimes fail if the user interacts with
the tabs directly around the same time. The redirect flow has been
updated to ensure that the permissions tab is still closed in that
case. The user is on their own to find the dapp tab again in that case.
* Login per site tab popup fixes (#7617)
* Handle redirect in response to state update in permissions-connect
* Ensure origin is available to permissions-connect subcomponents during redirect
* Hide app bar whenever on redirect route
* Improvements to handling of redirects in permissions-connect
* Ensure permission request id change handling only happens when page is not null
* Lint fix
* Decouple confirm transaction screen from the selected address (#7622)
* Avoid race condtion that could prevent contextual account switching (#7623)
There was a race condition in the logic responsible for switching the
selected account based upon the active tab. It was asynchronously
querying the active tab, then assuming it had been retrieved later.
The active tab info itself was already in the redux store in another
spot, one that is guaranteed to be set before the UI renders. The
race condition was avoided by deleting the duplicate state, and using
the other active tab state.
* Only redirect back to dapp if current tab is active (#7621)
The "redirect back to dapp" behaviour can be disruptive when the
permissions connect tab is not active. The purpose of the redirect was
to maintain context between the dapp and the permissions request, but
if the user has already moved to another tab, that no longer applies.
