Add the new configuration option 'assume-ipv6ll-only' which specifies
the devices for which NM will try to assume an existing IPv6LL-only
configuration.
The new default behavior is to ignore such configurations since IPv6LL
addresses are automatically assigned by the kernel when the device is
brought up and thus the presence of an IPv6LL address doesn't mean
that the device was configured by the administrator.
The previous behavior was to always assume IPv6LL-only configurations
but this often had the unwanted effect of preventing other on-disk
configurations to be activated. To preserve the old behavior the
option must be set to '*'.

(cherry picked from commit 3bc097b084)
NM already understands the command line argument --g-fatal-warnings
which causes setting of g_log_set_always_fatal().
Also interpret the "fatal-warnings" token in NM_DEBUG environment
variable and in main.debug configuration setting.
Usage hint: either set
$ export NM_DEBUG=RLIMIT_CORE,fatal-warnings
or add the following section to NetworkManager.conf
[main]
debug=RLIMIT_CORE,fatal-warnings

(cherry picked from commit 10cde91f10)
This makes NetworkManager independent of <polkit/polkit.h>
development headers and libpolkit-gobject-1.so library.
Instead communicate directly with polkit using its DBUS
interface.
PolicyKit support is now always compiled in. You can control
polkit authorization with the configuration option
[main]
auth-polkit=yes|no
If the configure option is omitted, a build time default
value is used. This default value can be set with the
configure option --enable-polkit.
This commit adds a new class NMAuthManager that reimplements the
relevant DBUS client parts. It takes source code from the polkit
library.
