The functionality of the ibft settings plugin is now handled by
nm-initrd-generator. There is no need for it anymore, drop it.
Note that ibft called iscsiadm, which requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN to work
([1]). We really want to drop this capability, so the current solution
of a settings plugin (as it is implemented) is wrong. The solution
instead is nm-initrd-generator.
Also, on Fedora the ibft was disabled and probably on most other
distributions as well. This was only used on RHEL.

After 1.18.0 is released, merge it back into master so that
1.18.0 is part of the history of master. That means,
$ git log --first-parent master
will also traverse 1.18.0 and 1.18-rc*.
Also bump the micro version to 1.19.1-dev to indicate that this is
after 1.18.0 is out.
This removes libnm-glib, libnm-glib-vpn, and libnm-util for good.
The it has been replaced with libnm since NetworkManager 1.0, disabled
by default since 1.12 and no up-to-date distributions ship it for years
now.
Removing the libraries allows us to:
* Remove the horrible hacks that were in place to deal with accidental use
of both the new and old library in a single process.
* Relief the translators of maintenance burden of similar yet different
strings.
* Get rid of known bad code without chances of ever getting fixed
(libnm-glib/nm-object.c and libnm-glib/nm-object-cache.c)
* Generally lower the footprint of the releases and our workspace
If there are some really really legacy users; they can just build
libnm-glib and friends from the NetworkManager-1.16 distribution. The
D-Bus API is stable and old libnm-glib will keep working forever.

The 4th argument of AC_SEARCH_LIBS is a list of additional libraries,
not the name of the variable to hold the result which is always
ac_cv_search_$function. Also, we should ignore the result when it is
"none required".

Add a configure option to disable eBPF support in n-acd.
Note that, even if eBPF is not supported, n-acd requires a kernel >
3.19, which means that the setsockopt(..., SO_ATTACH_BPF) option must
be defined. To allow building on older kernels without modifying the
n-acd code, we inject the SO_ATTACH_BPF value as a preprocessor define
in the compiler the command line.
