$ nmcli dev connect wlan0
This can happen for example when some other process disconnects
the connection being connected.
Also fix printing a message on success.

and use it for 'nmcli device show'.
This allows filtering output not only for whole groups, but also for individual
fields in commands that print data in groups (sections).
Example:
$ nmcli -f general.device,general.driver,ipv4,ipv6.address device show eth0
GENERAL.DEVICE: eth0
GENERAL.DRIVER: e1000e
IP4.ADDRESS[1]: ip = 10.0.5.228/23, gw = 10.0.5.254
IP4.ADDRESS[2]: ip = 5.5.5.5/32, gw = 5.5.5.1
IP4.DNS[1]: 192.168.122.1
IP4.DNS[2]: 8.8.8.8
IP4.DOMAIN[1]: mycompany.com
These are (most likely) only warnings and not severe bugs.
Some of these changes are mostly made to get a clean run of
Coverity without any warnings.

Move the checks for nmc_arg_is_help to the beginning of the
checks for command matches.
Up to now, no command begins with 'h', so this has no behavioral
change whatsoever. But imagine a command that begins with 'h'
(for example `nmcli general hostname`), in that case `nmcli general h`
should still show the help, as users might be accustomed to this
abbreviation.

The commands performing actions without an output only printed a successfull
message for --pretty mode. Some users don't like this silent operation.
This commit makes nmcli print operation success unconditionally. I think that
doesn't hurt; scripts/users can ignore the message if not interested.

* remove "Encrypted" tag
The "Encrypted: " stuff was initially copied from nm-tool, but it doesn't help
here much. See also http://cgit.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/commit/?id=a734c836a56f3170202f0555f1a03c9b2835775c
for APs with WPA & RSN IEs, but no privacy flag.
* remove a space from "WPA ", etc. strings. Translators often leave it out
and thus break output.
* change "WPA" to "WPA1" to make it clearer
* use "802.1X" instead of "Enterprise" to save some characters
The data are added to output_data at first, and then they are printed all at
once using print_data(), that takes care of proper alignment and display.
The static 'width' values defined in NmcOutputField columns are not used now,
but dynamically computed maximal widths override them.
Add a new libnm-glib method to get the type description for a device,
and use it in nmcli. For most types, the type description is based on
the class name, but for NMDeviceGeneric, it comes from the
:type-description property.
Examples:
nmcli device show - shows details for all available devices
nmcli device show eth0 - shows details for eth0
nmcli device show em1.25 - shows details for em1.25 VLAN device
This requests NetworkManager to perform scanning for Wi-Fi networks.
NetworkManager scans periodically, but this command can be used by impatient
users who don't want to wait for the next scan.
Direct D-Bus API call example:
gdbus call --system -d org.freedesktop.NetworkManager \
-o /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/2 \
-m org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Device.Wireless.RequestScan {}
Shorter forms work as previously. Thus, all of these commands are valid:
nmcli device, nmcli devic, nmcli devi, nmcli dev, nmcli de, nmcli d
nmcli connection, nmcli connectio, ..., nmcli conn, nmcli con, ..., nmcli c
