Instead of having several bash functions that return some values
via nmcli, add few functions that accept parameters.

Now that NMActiveConnection has IP and DHCP config info, use that
directly in "nmcli con show active" rather than getting it from the
connection's device; this way, we get the right info for VPN
connections as well.
That means you can display single property.
Example:
$ nmcli -f connection.id,802-3-ethernet.mtu s c my-eth-profile
connection.id: my-eth-profile
802-3-ethernet.mtu: auto
and use it for 'nmcli device show'.
This allows filtering output not only for whole groups, but also for individual
fields in commands that print data in groups (sections).
Example:
$ nmcli -f general.device,general.driver,ipv4,ipv6.address device show eth0
GENERAL.DEVICE: eth0
GENERAL.DRIVER: e1000e
IP4.ADDRESS[1]: ip = 10.0.5.228/23, gw = 10.0.5.254
IP4.ADDRESS[2]: ip = 5.5.5.5/32, gw = 5.5.5.1
IP4.DNS[1]: 192.168.122.1
IP4.DNS[2]: 8.8.8.8
IP4.DOMAIN[1]: mycompany.com
Note:
Tilde expansion is enabled, so ~/abc<TAB> expands the string to /home/joe/abc.
However, when user did not use the completion and typed "~/myfile" manually,
the path could not be opened.
nmcli 802-1x.ca-cert> set ~/newca.crt
Error: failed to set 'ca-cert' property: Failed to open file '~/newca.crt': No such file or directory
nmcli con add type team config /home/cimrman/team-config.json
libteam (and in turn NetworkManager) configures team devices via plain config
data in JSON format. However, it is useful and more user-friendly for nmcli to
accept also a file name that contains the config data, and read it. Thus the
user is not forced to type whole (possibly long) config on the command line.
Like 'team', 'team-slave' also understands the property 'config'.
Add it to bash completion for the 'connection add' command.

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.

If the curser is not at the end of the line, we want to complete
by ignoring everything right of the curser. However, the variable
$cur is set to the spaces since the last word, so we have to
get rid of them first
Without this, the following did not complete:
$ nmcli connection modify id <TAB> lo
because $cur is set to ' '.

_init_completion returns the '${words[@]}' array with all the
quotes and escapes. We dont care about it so we drop (unescape)
first.
Before, the following failed:
nmcli 'c' <TAB>
nmcli connection modify id Wireless\ Connection\ 1 <TAB>
