Also react on SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2, beside SIGHUP.
Only for SIGHUP actually reload the configuration from
disc. For the other signals only emit a config-changed
signal.
Add support for a new section [connection] in NetworkManager.conf.
If the connection leaves an option at "unknown"/"default", we can
support overwriting the value from global configuration.
We also support other sections that are named with "connection"
as a prefix, such as [connection2], [connection-wifi]. This is
to support multiple default values that can be applied depending
on the used device.
I think this has great potential. Only downside is that when
the user looks at a connection value, it will see that it is
unspecified. But the actually used value depends on the device
type and might not be obvious.

Add the new configuration option 'assume-ipv6ll-only' which specifies
the devices for which NM will try to assume an existing IPv6LL-only
configuration.
The new default behavior is to ignore such configurations since IPv6LL
addresses are automatically assigned by the kernel when the device is
brought up and thus the presence of an IPv6LL address doesn't mean
that the device was configured by the administrator.
The previous behavior was to always assume IPv6LL-only configurations
but this often had the unwanted effect of preventing other on-disk
configurations to be activated. To preserve the old behavior the
option must be set to '*'.

Add a new 'rc-manager' configuration parameter that allows to select
the strategy used to write resolv.conf; currently supported values
are: none|resolvconf|netconfig, 'none' meaning that NM directly writes
the file.
The default value of the parameter is 'none'; however if a
RESOLVCONF_PATH (or NETCONFIG_PATH) is specified at build time, the
default value will be 'resolvconf' (or 'netconfig').
With this change, NMConfig is really immutable and all
modifyable parts migrated to NMConfigData.
Another advantage is that components can now subscribe to
NMConfig changes to pickup changes to no-auto-default.
The NMConfig class should be immutable and its properties should
not change, with one exception: the NMConfigData property.
Later, when changing/reloading a configuration, NMConfig will only swap
the NMConfigData instance.
The NMConfigData instance itself is also immutable.
