Instead of having it all in the Linux implementation, move all the
timeout logic and most of the processing logic into the NMRDisc
base class so that it can be used by NMFakeRDisc as well. This
will help increase testability since now we can test the timeout
and expiry logic from the fake plugin too.
Previously, src/nm-ip4-config.h, libnm/nm-ip4-config.h, and
libnm-glib/nm-ip4-config.h all used "NM_IP4_CONFIG_H" as an include
guard, which meant that nm-test-utils.h could not tell which of them
was being included (and so, eg, if you tried to include
nm-ip4-config.h in a libnm test, it would fail to compile because
nm-test-utils.h was referring to symbols in src/nm-ip4-config.h).
Fix this by changing the include guards in the non-API-stable parts of
the tree:
- libnm-glib/nm-ip4-config.h remains NM_IP4_CONFIG_H
- libnm/nm-ip4-config.h now uses __NM_IP4_CONFIG_H__
- src/nm-ip4-config.h now uses __NETWORKMANAGER_IP4_CONFIG_H__
And likewise for all other headers.
The two non-"nm"-prefixed headers, libnm/NetworkManager.h and
src/NetworkManagerUtils.h are now __NETWORKMANAGER_H__ and
__NETWORKMANAGER_UTILS_H__ respectively, which, while not entirely
consistent with the general scheme, do still mostly make sense in
isolation.
Ethernet-like interfaces aren't the only type of interfaces that can
run IPv6 but the rdisc code only returns an address if the interface's
hardware address is 6 bytes.
Interface types like PPP (rfc5072) and IPoIB (rfc4391) have their own
specifications for constructing IPv6 addresses and we should honor
those.
So instead of expecting a MAC address, let each device subclass
generate an Interface Identifier and use that for rdisc instead.
The IPv6 spec say that when performing SLAAC, you should sent at most
3 RSes, at least 4 seconds apart. We were previously continuing to
send RSes forever if we didn't get back a response. Fix that.
(Since the fix involves making nm-lndp-rdisc use NMPlatform, it was
necessary to rewrite the rdisc test program a bit, to not try to
include <net/if.h>, which is incompatible with <linux/if.h>.)
NetworkManager uses the sysctl value 'max_addresses' as the kernel does.
There is however a difference in what addresses are taken into account.
The kernel counts all addresses on the interface (including temporary,
private addresses and user configured ones).
NM instead only limits the number of public autoconf addresses to
'max_addresses'. This is because it is difficult for NM to count all
addresses (which can come from different sources) and it is not
necessarily a more logical behavior. Only be aware, that NM uses
the same config value as the kernel, but counts differently.
Especially, the kernel might reach the limit earlier then NM in the
presence of temporary addresses or addresses not from SLAAC.
Note, that the kernel uses 'max_addresses' only to limit public, autoconf
addresses. So this limit does not affect NM adding as many addresses as
it wants.

Abstract class, fake implementation and a manual testing tool for
NetworkManager's internal IPv6 router discovery module. When a real
implementation is ready, it will replace nm-ip6-manager and will be used
by nm-device.
