Instead of having NMManager listen directly to the ModemManager
for modem removal signals, have the NMDeviceModem and NMDeviceBt
listen for them (since they obviously have a pointer to the backing
NMModem object) and then re-emit any necessary device removal
signals to the manager.
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.

The private reference to the NMDBusManager is created at
NMModemManager init time, and should only be cleared when the
NMModemManager is disposed. Instead it was getting cleared
whenever ModemManager1 was seen on the bus, and thus was unavailable
later when it was required to watch for the old ModemManager.
This caused NetworkManager to print warnings about NULL object
access to the console, and could prevent it from noticing when
ModemManager appeared on the system bus.
MM won't always be present, and if it's not, your logs will fill up
with warnings about MM not being able to be launched. And when
running with systemd, you'll get a different class of errors like:
<warn> error poking ModemManager: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.systemd1.LoadFailed:
Unit dbus-org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.service failed to load: No such file or
directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status
dbus-org.freedesktop.ModemManager1.service' for details.
and I'm tired of chasing and special-casing all the launch-failed
errors that D-Bus and systemd use.
Plus, we have dynamic log level changing via the D-Bus interface so if
people need to debug this, just chaning the log level will tell you
what's wrong.
The 'GDBusObjectManagerClient' won't signal added or removed objects when it
was created but no name owner was available in the bus. We can still use it for
name-owner changes, but in order to have added/removed object signals, we'll
need to re-create the whole 'MMManager' when we know the service came alive in
the bus.
See GLib/GIO/GDBus bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693285
We avoid requesting to auto-start the service when the 'MMManager' is created,
so that we can use it to follow name-owner changes (when auto-starting
requested the 'MMManager' creation may fail).
We still handle the periodic poking to the service, but instead of re-creating
the 'MMManager', we just call org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer.Ping().
G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_PRIVATE() is known to be slow, so just call it once when
the private data is created, and keep a 'priv' pointer around for easy access.
The new `MMManager' object takes care of notifying modems added or removed from
the ModemManager1 interface.
We will listen to both the old and new ModemManager implementations, but as soon
as the first ModemManager implementation is found, the other one gets cleared,
so that we don't wait forever to appear.
The new ModemManager comes with its own headers, and defines its own symbols to
name e.g. each interface. In order not to collide with the new ones, rename the
existing ones with a 'MM_OLD_DBUS' prefix instead of just 'MM_DBUS'.
This property is not really used anywhere; so pointless to have it around.
Also, we already make sure in `NMModemManager' that the so called 'master'
device is valid and exists.
This worked fine with PPP because PPP terminates, and NM watches
for that and handles it fine. But modems with pseudo-ethernet ports
don't have anything like that, so we have to watch the modem's state
property instead. This works only with MM 0.5.4 and later (including
0.6).
So that Bluetooth can use them. They used to be NMDevice subclasses, but
we need them to be generic objects that both bluetooth and the normal
modem stack can use. All because GObject can't do multiple inheritance,
but that would probably be even messier.
So now that we have generic modem objects, we can create the actual
NMDevice subclasses that will wrap them for non-BT modems, and then
also have NMDeviceBt wrap them too for DUN.
add function nm_modem_manager_has_modem_for_iface to modem-manager api
and ignore device additions in nm-manager if the iface is claimed by
modem-manager; also forget about already managed devices once they get
claimed by modem-manager.
