Supporting PolicyKit required no additional library, just extra code
to handle the D-Bus calls. For that, there was a compile time option
to even stip out that code. Note, that you could (and still can)
configure the system not to use policy-kit. The point was to reduce
the binary size in case you don't need it.
Remove this. I guess, we we aim for such aggressive optimization of
the binary size, we should instead make all device types disablable
at configuration time. We don't do that either and other low hanging
fruits, because it's better to always enable features, unless they
require external dependencies.
Also, the next commit will make more use of NMAuthManager. So, having
it disabled at compile time, makes even less sense.
netlink's API is stable, and strictly defined by the integer values that make
up commands and attributes. There is little reason do disable a netlink feature
based on compile time detection of the kernel headers.
Either kernel supports it, or it will fail with an appropriate response.
Also, support for NL80211_CMD_CRIT_PROTOCOL_START was merge to kernel
in 2013. Maybe, we should now just always assume support (in the kernel
headers is there). Anyway, don't do that yet, but instead avoid the
defines and use the numeric values directly.
