In preparation for porting to GDBus, make nm_connection_to_dbus(),
etc, represent connections as GVariants of type 'a{sa{sv}}' rather
than as GHashTables-of-GHashTables-of-GValues.
This means we're constantly converting back and forth internally, but
this is just a stepping stone on the way to the full GDBus port, and
all of that code will go away again later.
Compile srcdir into test-dispatcher-envp rather than passing it on the
command-line, to make it easier to run by hand, and so we can use
automake's TESTS support.
Rename nm_connection_to_hash() to nm_connection_to_dbus(), and
nm_connection_new_from_hash() to nm_connection_new_from_dbus(). In
addition to clarifying that this is specifically the D-Bus
serialization format, these names will also work better in the
GDBus-based future where the serialization format is GVariant, not
GHashTable.
Also, move NMSettingHashFlags to nm-connection.h, and rename it
NMConnectionSerializationFlags.
Add a header file to expose private utility functions from libnm-core
that can be used by NetworkManager (core) and libnm.so. The header
is also used to give privileged access to libnm-core. Since NM links
statically, these functions are not exported and not part of public ABI.
This also removes the NM_UTILS_PRIVATE_CALL() macro and libnm.so no
longer exports nm_utils_get_private().
Before, this functionality was partly declared in nm-utils-private.h.
This was wrong because nm-utils-private.h is for functionality
entirely private to libnm-core.

The fact that NMRemoteConnection has to be an NMConnection and
therefore can't be an NMObject means that it needs to reimplement bits
of NMObject functionality (and likewise NMObject needs some special
magic to deal with it). Likewise, we will need a daemon-side
equivalent of NMObject as part of the gdbus port, and we would want
NMSettingsConnection to be able to inherit from this as well.
Solve this problem by making NMConnection into an interface, and
having NMRemoteConnection and NMSettingsConnection implement it. (We
use some hacks to keep the GHashTable of NMSettings objects inside
nm-connection.c rather than having to be implemented by the
implementations.)
Since NMConnection is no longer an instantiable type, this adds
NMSimpleConnection to replace the various non-D-Bus-based uses of
NMConnection throughout the code. nm_connection_new() becomes
nm_simple_connection_new(), nm_connection_new_from_hash() becomes
nm_simple_connection_new_from_hash(), and nm_connection_duplicate()
becomes nm_simple_connection_new_clone().
Add NetworkManager.h, which includes all of the other NM header, and
require all external users of libnm to use that rather than the
individual headers.
(An exception is made for nm-dbus-interface.h,
nm-vpn-dbus-interface.h, and nm-version.h, which can be included
separately.)
Since the API has not changed at this point, this is mostly just a
matter of updating Makefiles, and changing references to the library
name in comments.
NetworkManager cannot link to libnm due to the duplicated type/symbol
names. So it links to libnm-core.la directly, which means that
NetworkManager gets a separate copy of that code from libnm.so.
Everything else links to libnm.
nm-version.h was getting disted, making srcdir!=builddir work for
tarball builds, but not for git builds.
Also, remove "-I${top_builddir}/include" from all Makefile.ams, since
there's nothing generated in include/ any more.
Unfortunately, $(AM_CPPFLAGS) gets overridden by per-target _CPPFLAGS
variables, which $(INCLUDES) did not, so this requires some additional
changes.
In most places, I have just gotten rid of the per-target _CPPFLAGS
variables; in directories with a single target, the per-target
variable is unnecessary, and in directories with multiple targets, the
per-target variable is often undesirable, since it forces some files
to be compiled twice, even though there ends up being no difference
between the two files.
Use --enable-doc and --enable-tests instead of --with-docs and
--with-tests. This is consistent with other features and with
--enable-gtk-doc option. Support current variants as fallback.
Don't build tests unless --enable-tests is specified.
The ctype macros (eg, isalnum(), tolower()) are locale-dependent. Use
glib's ASCII-only versions instead.
Also, replace isascii() with g_ascii_isprint(), since isascii()
accepts control characters, which isn't what the code wanted in any of
the places where it was using it.
For VPN connections, the interface name would be that of the VPN's
IP interface, but the script environment would be the that of the
VPN's parent device. Enhance the environment by adding any VPN
specific details as additional environment variables prefixed by
"VPN_". Leave the existing environment setup intact for backwards
compatiblity.
Additionally, the dispatcher never got updated for IPv6 support,
so push IPv6 configuration and DHCPv6 configuration into the
environment too.
Even better, push everything the dispatcher needs to it instead
of making the dispatcher make D-Bus requests back to NM, which
sometimes fails if NM has already torn down the device or the
connection which the device was using.
And add some testcases to ensure that we don't break backwards compat,
the testcases here were grabbed from a 0.8.4 machine with a hacked up
dispatcher to dump everything it was given from NM.
