Bug Description

The default lock screen wallpaper in Artful is currently a plain blue screen.

We just need to set a gsettings override in ubuntu-settings for
org.gnome.desktop.screensaver picture-uri

The easy fix for now is to just use the same as the existing Ubuntu default background but Design could later provide an alternate background.

Users can change the lockscreen background in gnome-control-center's Settings>Background

Original Report
---------------
This is probably because the default wallpaper file doesn't exist on Artful (/usr/share/backgrounds/gnome/adwaita-lock.jpg).

This should be the default wallpaper.

Method to "fix":

Extract /usr/share/gnome-shell/gnome-shell-theme.gresource
copy in the wallpaper. It seems to need to be compiled in to the gresource file.
edit gnome-shell.theme.gresource.xml to add the local wallpaper
edit gnome-shell.css to set it
compile it back up with glib-compile-resources

Attached is a compiled resource with the wallpaper in it. It's just a hacky test.

Once the wallpaper is done, we also need to tweak the colours (and layout if possible).
