53e244bef6 auth: support disabling POLKIT authentication entirely at compile time
Let the user completly disable polkit authentication by
building NM with configure option  '--enable-polkit=disabled'.

In that case, configuring 'main.auth-polkit=yes' will fail all
authentication requests (except root-requests, which are always granted).

This reduces the size of the NetworkManager binary by some 26KB (16KB
stripped).

eabe7d856c auth: rework polkit autorization to use DBUS interface directly
This makes NetworkManager independent of <polkit/polkit.h>
development headers and libpolkit-gobject-1.so library.
Instead communicate directly with polkit using its DBUS
interface.

PolicyKit support is now always compiled in. You can control
polkit authorization with the configuration option
  [main]
  auth-polkit=yes|no

If the configure option is omitted, a build time default
value is used. This default value can be set with the
configure option --enable-polkit.

This commit adds a new class NMAuthManager that reimplements the
relevant DBUS client parts. It takes source code from the polkit
library.
