Document that the GPtrArray returned by
- nm_device_get_lldp_neighbors()
- nm_ip_config_get_addresses()
- nm_ip_config_get_routes()
is immutable and can be used by callers without the need of a copy.
Add the 'lldp' property to NMSettingConnection, which specifies
whether the reception and parsing of LLDP frames to discover neighbor
devices should be enabled.
This is intentionally IPv4 specific since this is used for a quick fallback to
method=link-local -- something that's not needed for IPv6 since the link local
address is always there.

Otherwise the uninitializeded objects could be prematurely signalled if their
paths are seen twice in quick succession. This happens when you have ethernet
hardware and add an ethernet connection -- it's immediatelly added to
AvialableConnections and the property reload signals the object addition
before the NMRemoteSettings's GetSettings() finishes:

We now (since 3272ff6 libnm/libnm-glib: don't quit in the middle of asking for
secrets) always hook on the quit timer when NM asks the plugin if it needs
secrets. The timer is 20 seconds, which seems too short.
Let's make it three minutes. Don't bother adding another timer or using a
distinct timeout: it does no harm for the plugin to remain unused for three
minutes on a bus.
Another option would be to completely unhook it; however the plugin wouldn't
learn if the user cancelled the NM's secrets request and would remain unused
on the bus forever.
For libnm library, "nm-dbus-interface.h" contains defines like the D-Bus
paths of NetworkManager. It is desirable to have this header usable without
having a dependency on "glib.h", for example for a QT application. For that,
commit c0852964a8 removed that dependancy.
For libnm-glib library, the analog to "nm-dbus-interface.h" is
"NetworkManager.h", and the same applies there. Commit
159e827a72 removed that include.
However, that broke build on PackageKit [1] which expected to get the
version macros by including "NetworkManager.h". So at least for libnm-glib,
we need to preserve old behavior so that a user including
"NetworkManager.h" gets the version macros, but not "glib.h".
Extract the version macros to a new header file "nm-version-macros.h".
This header doesn't include "glib.h" and can be included from
"NetworkManager.h". This gives as previous behavior and a glib-free
include.
For libnm we still don't include "nm-version-macros.h" to "nm-dbus-interface.h".
Very few users will actually need the version macros, but not using
libnm.
Users that use libnm, should just include (libnm's) "NetworkManager.h" to
get all headers.
As a special case, a user who doesn't want to use glib/libnm, but still
needs both "nm-dbus-interface.h" and "nm-version-macros.h", can include
them both separately.

connection_added() can be called before init_get_settings_cb(), and we can't
complete the connection until it is visible, else it would be uninitialized.
Test case:
* have 'em1' interface
$ nmcli con add type ethernet con-name myeth ifname em1 autoconnect no
(process:9039): libnm-CRITICAL **: nm_connection_get_id: assertion 's_con != NULL' failed

[lkundrak@v3.sk: This is not quite the correct fix, we shouldn't emit
NMObject:connection-added for an unfinished object. Nevertheless, let's go with
it until we have a better one. Will revert this afterwards. See linked bugs.]

Backport to 1.0.6 the following symbols:
- nm_setting_wired_get_wake_on_lan
- nm_setting_wired_get_wake_on_lan_password
- nm_setting_wired_wake_on_lan_get_type
added to 1.0.6 with commit d449d82304
API should be added with "Since:" of the next release on the same branch.
That means, new API on 1.1 branch (development), should be "Since: 1.2"
and new API on 1.0 branch (stable) will be "Since: 1.0.x". Similarly, new
API on master is NM_AVAILABLE_IN_1_2 and will be added with the linker
version libnl_1_2 -- never the versions of minor releases.
It is also strongly advised that for the 1.0 branch, we only add API
that was previously formerly added on master. IOW, that we only do true
backports of API that already exists on master.
API that gets backported, must also be added to master via NM_BACKPORT_SYMBOL().
That gives ABI compatibility and an application that was build against 1.0.x
will work with 1.y.z version (y > 0) without need for recompiling -- provided
that 1.y.z also contains that API.
There is one important caveat: if a major branch (e.g. current master) has a
linker section of backported APIs (e.g. libnm_1_0_6), we must do the minor release
(1.0.6) before the next major release (1.2). The reason is that after the major
release, the linker section (libnm_1_0_6) must not be extended and thus
the minor release (1.0.6) must be already released at that point.
In general, users should avoid using backported API because it limits
the ability to upgrade to arbitrary later versions. But together with the
previous point (that we only backport API to minor releases), a user that
uses backported API can be sure that a 1.y.z version is ABI compatible with
1.0.x, if the 1.y.z release date was after the release date of 1.0.x.
This reverts commit 02a136682c.
Backport to 1.0.6 the following symbols:

The localization headers are now included via "nm-default.h".
Also fixes several places, where we wrongly included <glib/gi18n-lib.h>
instead of <glib/gi18n.h>. For example under "clients/" directory.
In hindsight, the NMVpnPluginOld should never have made public for
nm-1-0 as there are no users and we don't want to support this API.
For now, just deprecate it.
After copying "nm-vpn-plugin-old.*" to "nm-vpn-service-plugin.*",
rename the class and add it to the Makefile.
This will become the new VPN Service API for libnm 1.2. No changes
done yet except renaming of the classes and functions.
Rename the previous classes NMVpnPlugin(Old) to NMVpnServicePlugin
to have a distinct name from NMVpnEditorPlugin. Buth are plugins, but
with a different use.

Files are yet unchanged, only copy them to get a nicer history.
/bin/cp libnm/nm-vpn-plugin-old.c libnm/nm-vpn-service-plugin.c
/bin/cp libnm/nm-vpn-plugin-old.h libnm/nm-vpn-service-plugin.h
Split the content of libnm/nm-vpn-editor-plugin.h and
move NMVpnEditorPlugin to libnm-core/nm-vpn-editor-plugin.h.
VPN plugins allow us to extend functionality about VPNs.
This can be also useful for NetworkManager core, hence
move that part to libnm-core.
The name NMVpnEditorPlugin is slightly misleading but not completely
wrong. The "editor" part stands no longer for bringing nm-applet
functionality (alone), but enable general VPN functionality in
the client.
Especially because we already have NMVpnPluginOld with a different
meaning (i.e. a base class of the plugin server implementation).
NMVpnPluginInfo is little more then a wrapper around
the GKeyFile that describes the VPN plugin settings,
i.e. the name files under "/etc/NetworkManager/VPN/".
Add this class to make the VPN API more explicit. Clients
now can use NMVpnPluginInfo instead of concerning themselves
with loading the keyfile and the meaning of its properties.
Also add support for a new VPN plugins directory
"/usr/lib/NetworkManager/VPN", which should replace
"/etc/NetworkManager/VPN" in the future. But we have to
consider both locations for backward compatibility.
The content of the VPN directory is not user configuration,
hence it should not be under "/etc". See related bug 738853.
Rather than randomly including one or more of <glib.h>,
<glib-object.h>, and <gio/gio.h> everywhere (and forgetting to include
"nm-glib-compat.h" most of the time), rename nm-glib-compat.h to
nm-glib.h, include <gio/gio.h> from there, and then change all .c
files in NM to include "nm-glib.h" rather than including the glib
headers directly.
(Public headers files still have to include the real glib headers,
since nm-glib.h isn't installed...)
Also, remove glib includes from header files that are already
including a base object header file (which must itself already include
the glib headers).
Add a file containing the defines like DBUS_INTERFACE_DBUS from
dbus-shared.h, and use it from the gdbus-using files.
Also, convert a bunch of other places that were previously hardcoding
the string values to use the defines instead, and fix the ifcfg-rh
plugin to properly namespace its own D-Bus-related defines.
