Improve documentation by preserving paragraphs in the
nm-settings-nmcli man pages.
To do that structure of src/libnm-client-impl/nm-settings-docs-gir.xml
was changed to have "description" as subnode to property node instead
of attribute of property node. Another subnode "description-docbook"
was added - this node is then used when generating man pages.
tools/generate-docs-nm-settings-docs-gir.py and man/nm-settings-dbus.xsl
were also changed to accomodate for changes mentioned above.
Replace xsltproc tool with python script when generating
./src/libnmc-setting/settings-docs.h.
Deleted settings-docs.xsl since it was replaced by python script.
Change src/libnmc-setting/settings-docs.h.in accodring to newly
generated src/libnmc-setting/settings-docs.h

While iterating the context (once), multiple sources can be dispatched.
So if we get a timeout and shortly after the weak-ref callback, then
we still need to honor the weak-ref.
In particular, because weak_ref.unref() is not safe to do after
the object was already destroyed. So we need to be correct about
tracking destruction.
When creating one profile for each veth during activation the creation
of the veth could fail. When the link for the first profile is created
the link for the peer is generated in kernel. Therefore when trying to
activate the second profile it will fail because the link already
exists. NetworkManager must check if the link already exists and
corresponds to the same veth, if so, it should skip the link creation.

In initrd, a too short carrier timeout means that the machine will
possibly fail to boot. On the other hand, increasing the value doesn't
have side effects, except for a bit longer delay on some machines.
Increase the value to 10 seconds. Note that the default value is not
propagated to the real root.

Resolve the defaults in build.sh instead of RPM macros. This looks less
terrible maintaining the same defaults as well as options to override it
upstream.
Moving it to the block that downstreams (Fedora, Red Hat) keep
customized makes it possible for them to also maintain customized
defaults here.
In particular, the downstreams should be able to enable bcond_test
at least for their production release (otherwise there's little point in
actually running tests at package build time).

Otherwise, the path "src/c-stdaux/src/docs/conf.py" matches for
formatting. But this file is imported via git-subtree, we don't
want to format it.
Filter out such paths.
It was documented to be an optional parameter. That is also in line
with g_dbus_connection_call(), which is essentially wrapped by nm_client_dbus_call().

In the past, nmp_lookup_init_object() could both lookup all object for a
certain ifindex, and lookup all objects of a type. That fallback path
already leads to an assertion failure fora while now, so nobody should
be using this function to lookup all objects of a certain type (for
what, we have nmp_lookup_init_obj_type()).
Now, remove the fallback path, and rename the function to what it really
does.
NMPObject is a union. It's not clear to me that C guarnatees that
designated initializers will meaningfully set all fields to zero. Use
memset() instead.
It can be useful to choose a different "ipv6.addr-gen-mode". And it can be
useful to override the default for a set of profiles.
For example, in cloud or in a data center, stable-privacy might not be
the best choice. Add a mechanism to override the default via global defaults
in NetworkManager.conf:
# /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/90-ipv6-addr-gen-mode-override.conf
[connection-90-ipv6-addr-gen-mode-override]
match-device=type:ethernet
ipv6.addr-gen-mode=0
"ipv6.addr-gen-mode" is a special property, because its default depends on
the component that configures the profile.
- when read from disk (keyfile and ifcfg-rh), a missing addr-gen-mode
key means to default to "eui64".
- when configured via D-Bus, a missing addr-gen-mode property means to
default to "stable-privacy".
- libnm's ip6-config::addr-gen-mode property defaults to
"stable-privacy".
- when some tool creates a profile, they either can explicitly
set the mode, or they get the default of the underlying mechanisms
above.
- nm-initrd-generator explicitly sets "eui64" for profiles it creates.
- nmcli doesn' explicitly set it, but inherits the default form
libnm's ip6-config::addr-gen-mode.
- when NM creates a auto-default-connection for ethernet ("Wired connection 1"),
it inherits the default from libnm's ip6-config::addr-gen-mode.
Global connection defaults only take effect when the per-profile
value is set to a special default/unset value. To account for the
different cases above, we add two such special values: "default" and
"default-or-eui64". That's something we didn't do before, but it seams
useful and easy to understand.
Also, this neatly expresses the current behaviors we already have. E.g.
if you don't specify the "addr-gen-mode" in a keyfile, "default-or-eui64"
is a pretty clear thing.
Note that usually we cannot change default values, in particular not for
libnm's properties. That is because we don't serialize the default
values to D-Bus/keyfile, so if we change the default, we change
behavior. Here we change from "stable-privacy" to "default" and
from "eui64" to "default-or-eui64". That means, the user only experiences
a change in behavior, if they have a ".conf" file that overrides the default.

teamdctl_connect() has a parameter cli_type. If unspecified, the
library will try usock, dbus (if enabled) and zmq (if enabled).
Trying to use the unix socket if we expect to use D-Bus can be bad. For
example, it might cause SELinux denials.
As we anyway require libteam to use D-Bus, if D-Bus is available,
explicitly select the cli type.
