Port libnm-core/libnm to GDBus.
The NetworkManager daemon continues to use dbus-glib; the
previously-added connection hash/variant conversion methods are now
moved to NetworkManagerUtils (along with a few other utilities that
are now only needed by the daemon code).
Add _nm_object_class_add_interface(), for declaring that a class
implements a particular interface, and then have NMObject create the
corresponding proxies itself. (The subclass can get a copy with
_nm_object_get_proxy() if it needs it for something).
(In GDBus, creating a proxy is a heavier operation than in dbus-glib,
so we'll need to create the proxies asynchronously. Moving the
creation to NMObject makes that easier since we can do it as part
of the existing init/init_async.)
The docs for NMIP4Config:addresses and NMIP4Config:routes claimed that
they were GPtrArrays of NMIP4Address/NMIP4Route, but get_property()
was actually trying to set them the D-Bus representation type, and it
was failing anyway because it used g_value_set_boxed() on a parameter
that was declared GParamSpecPointer. Fix it to use a GPtrArray-valued
property, and set it to the right thing.
NMIP6Config did the right thing with its :addresses and :routes
properties, but was using custom types (NM_TYPE_IP6_ADDRESS_OBJECT_ARRAY and
NM_TYPE_IP6_ROUTE_OBJECT_ARRAY). Make it use G_TYPE_PTR_ARRAY instead.
nm-types.c, nm-types.h, and nm-types-private.h are now empty, and so
can be dropped.
Make NMIP4Config:nameservers, NMIP4Config:wins-servers, and
NMIP6Config:nameservers be G_TYPE_STRV, with stringified IP addresses,
and update the APIs accordingly.
"NetworkManager.h"'s name (and non-standard capitalization) suggest
that it's some sort of high-level super-important header, but it's
really just low-level D-Bus stuff. Rename it to "nm-dbus-interface.h"
and likewise "NetworkManagerVPN.h" to "nm-vpn-dbus-interface.h"
Remove _nm_object_ensure_inited(), etc; objects that implement
GInitable are now mandatory-to-init().
Remove constructor() implementations that sometimes return NULL; do
all the relevant checking in init() instead.
Make nm_client_new() and nm_remote_settings_new() take a GCancellable
and a GError**.
Rather than having each object type override constructed() to call
_nm_object_register_properties(), have NMObject call a virtual method
on the subclass to ask it to register them.
Move some code around in nm-client.c and nm-object.c so that all
D-Bus-related initialization happens in init_dbus(), and
non-D-Bus-related stuff stays in construct().
(This simplifies the next commit.)
This commit begins creating the new "libnm", which will replace
libnm-util and libnm-glib.
The main reason for the libnm-util/libnm-glib split is that the daemon
needs to link to libnm-util (to get NMSettings, NMConnection, etc),
but can't link to libnm-glib (because it uses many of the same type
names as the NetworkManager daemon. eg, NMDevice). So the daemon links
to only libnm-util, but basically all clients link to both.
With libnm, there will be only a single client-visible library, and
NetworkManager will internally link against a private "libnm-core"
containing the parts that used to be in libnm-util.
(The "libnm-core" parts still need to be in their own directory so
that the daemon can see those header files without also seeing the
ones in libnm/ that conflict with its own headers.)
[This commit just copies the source code from libnm-util/ to
libnm-core/, and libnm-glib/ to libnm/:
