Public bug reported:

* Impact

Ubuntu 18.04 includes desktop integration for thunderbolt devices though
bolt and recent GNOME integration. The settings part of the feature
missed 18.04 but landed upstream since. The new panel allows to review
the list of authorized devices and revoke access, see
https://christian.kellner.me/2018/04/23/the-state-of-thunderbolt-3-in-
fedora-28/ for details (fedora backported the feature in there recent 28
version)

* Test case

- Connect a thunderbolt device
- Accept the authentification
- Go to settings -> devices -> thunderbolt

The device should be listed as "authorized"

You can also try to disable the authorization and see that the device
gets correctly denied then

* Regression impact

It's a new UI so there is no possible regression in an existing
fonctionnality.

Note that the new strings have been manually added to the bionic translations 
template some time ago which means they should have a correct level of 
translations in the next langpacks update

The patches serie has a small change of behaviour in that subpanel use
the main settings icons now, that solves the issue were some panels
didn't have a correct icon (including the thunderbolt one).
