When running one of:
nmcli device wifi list ifname wlan0
nmcli device wifi connect ... ifname wlan0
nmcli wrongly adds the device name to the output.
Do the completion only when requested.

nmcli closes its stdout when spawning the pager and thus, in editor
mode, nothing is printed once the pager terminates. For an interactive
mode like the editor, the pager seems not suitable, disable it.

In the previous code it is not clear to me that there won't be
a situation where we don't react on a state change, waiting for a
device-state-change that never comes.
Now, only wait for a better device-state reason if:
- we have a device
- and the ac-reason is unspecific (NM_ACTIVE_CONNECTION_STATE_REASON_DEVICE_DISCONNECTED)
- and the device still references the current active connection
- and the device state is not yet FAILED or DISCONNECTED.
The most important change is that we only wait longer, if the device's
active-connection is still the same as our current active connection.
I don't think this commit is really necessary, but I cannot understand
the previous logic.

This makes it a lot more convenient to deal with long outputs (such as
"nmcli c show id ...").
The implementation is essentially jacked from systemd. The bugs are
mine.
This basically uses "wifi" in place of "802-11-wireless" and analogously
for other setting types that have aliases unless a --terse option was
specified.
Apart from looking nicer it makes the default output less wide,
hopefully avoiding line breaks on 80 column terminals in basic use
cases.
Before refactoring nmcli recently, field names were marked for translation.
Note that for the property names, marking them had no effect as only
plain strings can be marked with N_().
Note how --fields are also an input argument. The input should be
independent of the locale and not translated. Likewise, when printing
the header names, they should not be translated to match the --fields
option.
$ LANG=de_DE.utf8 nmcli --fields GENERAL.DEVICE device show enp0s25
GENERAL.GERÄT: enp0s25
Drop the translation marks.
'nmcli connection show <con_id1> --show-secrets'
secrets were not shown.
'nmcli connection show <con_id1> --show-secrets <con_id2>'
secrets were shown only for connection ids following the
"--show-secrets" option (so only for 'con_id2').
Fix these behaviors showing secrets for all connections also
if the "--show-secrets" option is put after the connection ids.
If the D-Bus call to DeactivateConnection() fails, don't wait for the
connection to change state because this is not going to
happen. Instead, notify the user of the error and, if necessary, wait
for remaining connections to be deactivated.

That allows for the property list to contain derived
property types. Also, the list can be directly passed
off as a "const NMMetaAbstractInfo *const*" list.
This change (improves) behavior.
Before, we would only complete
if (g_strcmp0 (con_type, nmc_tab_completion.con_type) != 0)
which doesn't really make sense as it depends on the slave-type,
not nmc_tab_completion.con_type.
This changes behavior, in that yes|no prompt and answer is no longer
localized.
For command line arguments, I think it is always wrong for nmcli to
behave differently based on the localization. That is, input properties
on command line should not be translated.
One could make an argument, that in interactive mode that is different
and the user can be prompted in the his language.
But I think for consistency, it is wrong to ask for localized nmcli input.
Don't mutate global state. For now, hack around it by putting
the mutable flags to a separate (global) cache. Obviously, it
still uses global data, but it no longer touches the global
option_info list.
- have the "self" argument first, before the environment arguments.
It's more idiomatic.
- from within cli, always pass nmc_meta_environment and nmc_meta_arg
where needed.
- drop the union in NMMetaAbstractInfo. I was suppost to make casts
nicer, but it doesn't really.
The show-secrets flag can be toggled in edit mode
nmcli> nmcli show-secrets yes
There is no point in tracking two separate flags for it. Inside
edit mode, when the user toggles the show-secrets flag, it should
overwrite the command line option.
These two flags can be merged.
The show-secret property is basically a part of the current
configuration, relevant during printing. It will be passed
on to nmc_print(), and hence must be part of NmcConfig.
