If at the moment when spawning nm-iface-helper dhcp4/slaac
did not yet complete, we would not enable it.
That is wrong. If the connection indicates to use dhcp4/slaac,
it should be used by nm-iface-helper without considering the
current state on the device.

If DHCP fails for an assumed connection, NetworkManager would
transition the device to the FAILED and then to the ACTIVATED state
(because it is assumed); hence if the DHCP server goes temporarily
down the device will go into a permanent state without IP
configuration.
Fix this and try DHCP again after some time when the connection
is an assumed one.

This would cause the ip_vti0 generic device (that appears upon insertion of
ip_vti module during libreswan ipsec stack init) to go managed and brought UP.
Without addresses assigned the device would cause all the VPN traffic to
disappear in the oblivion.
When a new link is detected, NM tries to generate a default "Wired
connection" in nm_settings_device_added(), but if the link has not
been initialized by udev yet the function returns early because
priv->unmanaged_flags = UNMANAGED_PLATFORM_INIT.
To be sure that a default connection is created is such situation, we
need to call again nm_settings_device_added() after link
initialization.

Don't disconnect the device when the DHCP renewal fails and there are
already configured static IP addresses on the device. Instead, keep
the device up and try DHCP again after some time.

Don't clear NMDevice @master in nm_device_cleanup() if the device link
is still enslaved because this causes an inconsistent state in which
the slave in included in the @slaves field of master device but
@master of slave device is NULL.
In such state, if the master link gets deleted, NM receives a change
event for each slave and a deletion event for the master; the change
events should also remove slaves from @slaves of master device, but
since their @master field is NULL the removal can't be performed.
Later, when the master deletion event is received, @slaves is not empty
in dispose() of NMDevice and the following assertion is triggered:
dispose: runtime check failed: (priv->slaves == NULL)

When the DHCPv6 lease received from the server contains multiple
addresses, dhclient generates a new BOUND event for each of
them. Instead of overwriting the previous IP6 configuration for each
BOUND event, we should try to detect if the new configuration belongs
to the same lease and merge its addresses with the existing one in
such case.
This allows NetworkManager to configure multiple addresses on an
interface via DHCPv6.

During merge_and_apply(), we merge several NMIPxConfig into a new
@composite. For 'ignore-auto-routes' and 'ignore-auto-dns', we want to
prevent certain routes/dns-settings to be merged.
But it is wrong to reject settings from all partial configs.
For example, especially ext_ipx_config and vpn_ipx_config contain
routes that we still must merge and preserve.
This was recently changed by 79630c11e5
and previously by ab6548c621. But it was
wrong for a long time already.
Also note, that nm_ip4_config_merge() now also ignores NIS, WINS, and
dns-options.

The new flags are not yet used, so there is no change in functionality.
The flags NM_IP_CONFIG_MERGE_NO_ROUTES and NM_IP_CONFIG_MERGE_NO_DNS go
together with the 'ignore-auto-routes' and 'ignore-auto-dns' setting.
Note that for IPv4, NM_IP_CONFIG_MERGE_NO_DNS also ignores NIS, WINS, and dns-options.
This is different from current other places that handle 'ignore-auto-dns'
and only care about nameservers, domains, and searches.
If linklocal6_start() finds that the device already has an IPv6
link-local address and returns NM_ACT_STAGE_RETURN_FINISH, we don't
need to fill @out_config with an empty configuration. A non-NULL
@out_config is required only for ret = NM_ACT_STAGE_RETURN_SUCCESS.

The localization headers are now included via "nm-default.h".
Also fixes several places, where we wrongly included <glib/gi18n-lib.h>
instead of <glib/gi18n.h>. For example under "clients/" directory.

Future patches will create devices long before they are backed by
kernel resources, so we need to split NMDevice object creation from
actual setup based on the backing resources.
This patch combines the NMDeviceFactory's new_link() and
create_virtual_device_for_connection() class methods into a single
create_device() method that simply creates an unrealized NMDevice
object; this method is not expected to fail unless the device is
supposed to be ignored. This also means that the NMDevice
'platform-device' property is removed, because a platform link
object may not be available at NMDevice object creation time.
After the device is created, it is then "realized" at some later
time from a platform link (for existing/hardware devices via the
realize() method) or from an NMConnection (for newly created software
devices via the create_and_realize() NMDeviceClass methods).

In the gdbus port, the :options properties will be GVariant-valued
(and thus immutable), so having APIs that let you repeatedly modify
them would make things complicated. Since we actually only ever set
all the options at once, just change the APIs to do that, rather than
setting the options one-by-one.
Since nm-dispatcher already works in terms of GVariant, it makes
things simpler there if NMDhcp[46]Config can return its options as a
GVariant. And since we'll need it to be a GVariant internally later
anyway, just port everything to GVariant now, and convert it to a
GHashTable for dbus-glib only in get_property().
Move D-Bus export/unexport handling into NMExportedObject and remove
type-specific export/get_path methods (export paths are now specified
at the class level, and NMExportedObject handles the counters for all
exported types automatically).
Since all exportable objects now use the same get_path() method, we
can also add some helper methods to simplify get_property()
implementations for object-path and object-path-array properties.
Add NMExportedObject, make it the base class of all D-Bus-exported
types, and move the nm-properties-changed-signal logic into it. (Also,
make NMSettings use the same properties-changed code as everything
else, which it was not previously doing, presumably for historical
reasons).
(This is mostly just shuffling code around at this point, but
NMExportedObject will be more important in the gdbus port, since
gdbus-codegen doesn't do a very good job of supporting objects that
export multiple interfaces [as each NMDevice subclass does, for
example], so we will need more glue/helper code in NMExportedObject
then.)
Rather than randomly including one or more of <glib.h>,
<glib-object.h>, and <gio/gio.h> everywhere (and forgetting to include
"nm-glib-compat.h" most of the time), rename nm-glib-compat.h to
nm-glib.h, include <gio/gio.h> from there, and then change all .c
files in NM to include "nm-glib.h" rather than including the glib
headers directly.
(Public headers files still have to include the real glib headers,
since nm-glib.h isn't installed...)
Also, remove glib includes from header files that are already
including a base object header file (which must itself already include
the glib headers).
Commit d51975e changed, that we treat assumed and non-assumed
connections the same with respect to the default route. This is
certainly wrong, if we have an nm-generated-assumed connection
at hand. In this case, NM just generated a connection based on what
was configured on the system. Looking at that result and re-enforcing
the default-route is wrong.
We want to manage the default-route for assumed, persistent connections.
If the connection was assumed and generated, we do not.
This commit reverts d51975ed for nm-generated-assumed connection and
restores the previous behavior.

Rename "default_route.v4_configure_first_time" to "v4_commit_first_time".
For one, the name "commit" matches better to the @commit variable in ip4_config_merge_and_apply()
and ip6_config_merge_and_apply(). Then, we don't need this information
only for default-routes, so move the variable out of the @default_route
struct.
This makes wifi preferred to wwan (the modem and bluetooth device types
to be specific) by default, so that users that care about being
connected at all times can keep both enabled with auto-connect. As wifi
is usually unmetered and often faster than wwan, it makes sense to
prefer it. This is also how pretty much every smart-phone in the world
behaves, so it aligns better with user expectations too.

In most cases, when syncing routes, we should only remove routes
that were configured by us previously. Otherwise, there is a race
that we can remove routes added externally.
Now, when applying IP configuration for a device, only do a full-sync
at the first time when we activate the device. Later on, only remove
routes that were added by us.
priv->iface could change in device_link_changed() which reacts on platform link
changes caused by nm_platform_link_set_user_ipv6ll_enabled(). (The variable could
change between obtaining and using its value, because emitting a glib signal runs
callbacks synchronously).
Actually, the problem is already fixed by commit 04caae735f.
But still this is better.

Internal configuration is written as keyfile to
NMSTATEDIR"/NetworkManager-intern.conf"
Basically, the content of this file is merged with user
configuration from "NetworkManager.conf" files. After loading
the configuration, NMConfig exposes a merged view of user-provided
settings and internal overwrites.
All sections/groups named [.intern*] are reserved for internal
configuration values. They can be written by API, but are ignored
when the user sets them via "NetworkManager.conf". For these
internal sections, no conflicts can arise.
We can also overwrite individual properties from user configuration.
In this case, we store the value we want to set, but also remember
the value that the user configuration had, at the time of setting.
If on a later reload the user configuration changed, we ignore our
internal value -- as we assume that the user modified the value
afterwards.
We can also hide/delete value from user configuration.
This works on a per-setting basis.
When adding an IPv4 address, kernel will also add a device-route.
We don't want that route because it has the wrong metric. Instead,
we add our own route (with a different metric) and remove the
kernel-added one.
This could be avoided if kernel would support an IPv4 address flag
IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE like it does for IPv6 (see related bug rh#1221311).
One important thing is, that we want don't want to manage the
device-route on assumed devices. Note that this is correct behavior
if "assumed" means "do-not-touch".
If "assumed" means "seamlessly-takeover", then this is wrong.
Imagine we get a new DHCP address. In this case, we would not manage
the device-route on the assumed device. This cannot be fixed without
splitting unmanaged/assumed with related bug bgo 746440.
This is no regression as we would also not manage device-routes
for assumed devices previously.
We also don't want to remove the device-route if the user added
it externally. Note that here we behave wrongly too, because we
don't record externally added kernel routes in update_ip_config().
This still needs fixing.
Let IPv4 device-routes also be managed by NMRouteManager. NMRouteManager
has a list of all routes and can properly add, remove, and restore
the device route as needed.
One problem is, that the device-route does not get added immediately
with the address. It only appears some time later. This is solved
by NMRouteManager watching platform and if a matchin device-route shows up
within a short time after configuring addresses, remove it.
If the route appears after the short timeout, assume they were added for
other reasons (e.g. by the user) and don't remove them.

When ping is launched to check the connectivity to the gateway it may
return earlier than the given timeout in case of error. When this
happens we need to respawn it until the timeout is reached.
While at it, increase maximum timeout value to 600 seconds.

When the platform link gets removed outside of NetworkManager, we would
unmanage the device first. By checking the device state reason
NM_DEVICE_STATE_REASON_REMOVED, we would then not deconfigure the
interface, as it is already gone.
This was not correct because we must at least stop the dhcp client.
Otherwise the dhclient process keeps running. That meant, if the device
reappeared later, we would start dhclient again. Then we would find the
PID of the still running instance in the pidfile and kill it only than.
Fix it by replacing the 'deconfigure' boolean by a tri-state
'cleanup_type'.
