GObject creation cannot normally fail, except for types that implement
GInitable and take a GError in their _new() method. Some NM types
override constructor() and return NULL in some cases, but these
generally only happen in the case of programmer error (eg, failing to
set a mandatory property), and so crashing is reasonable (and most
likely inevitable anyway).
So, remove all NULL checks after calls to g_object_new() and its
myriad wrappers.

When determining the system hostname, /etc/hostname should override
/etc/sysconfig/network, so monitor both files.
When setting the hostname, set it in /etc/hostname, and delete the
/etc/sysconfig/network HOSTNAME entry if present.

Changing NM_CONTROLED from "no" to "yes" worked just the first time.
Fix that by storing unmanaged spec when interface becomes unmanaged
and adjust condition identifying "no-change" updates to the ifcfg
file.
When a connection changes on-disk, the in-memory copy of it may contain
transient secrets (agent-owned or not saved) that dont' get written out
to disk. When comparing the on-disk copy to the in-memory copy make sure
transient secrets are ignored so that we don't re-read the on-disk copy
needlessly.
The signal was emitted in case the removed connection was managed instead of
for unmanaged connection. Thus the signal had no effect.
That caused incorrect behaviour in case of changing NM_CONTROLLED=no to yes.
That didn't enable the device; only after the file was changed for the second time.
