External connections are devices that are configured outside of
NetworkManager. Such devices should be mostly ignored and not
be interfered with.
Note that we tend to create external connection profiles for
such devices. That happens for example if you use wg-quick to
manage a WireGuard interface outside of NetworkManager. But it
really happens for any interface.
This generated profile has no DNS configuration. Unless we use
the systemd-resolved backend, they thus don't contribute to the DNS
settings (which is fine).
However, with systemd-resolved, NetworkManager would also reset
the DNS configuration of those external interfaces. That is clearly
wrong. NetworkManager should only care about the interfaces that it
actively manages and leave others alone.
How to reproduce: use systemd-resolved and configure an interface outside
of NetworkManager. Note that `nmcli device` shows the state as
"connected (externally)". Note that `resolvectl` shows the DNS configuration
on that external interface. Do something in NetworkManager to trigger
a DNS update (e.g. SIGHUB or reactivate a profile). Note in `resolvectl`
that the external interface's DNS configuration was wiped.

The following merge request in ModemManager introduces a more or less
common timeout value for the connection attempts in all plugin and
protocol implementations:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mobile-broadband/ModemManager/-/merge_requests/391
The value chosen by default for the steps that may take long to
complete in a connection attempt is 180s, and 120s for the steps in
the disconnection path.
Until now, every different plugin or protocol had a different timeout
value, all of them <= 180s, and with that change in ModemManager, the
values are now aligned for all.
Note, though, that this does not mean that a connection attempt will
take always less than 180s, as there may be multiple other steps in
addition to the one that took the maximum timeout. The value chosen
for NetworkManager is a compromise between the new defaults from MM
and what the user would expect under e.g. very low quality conditions.

Kernel does a auto-mtu adjusting process whenever a port is added/removed from
the bridge, this can cause issues when NM wants to explicitly set an MTU which is
equal to the bridge default one (1500) because if later a port is added with a
different MTU the kernel will assign the bridge that port's MTU resulting in the bridge
runtime configuration differing from the bridge's NM connection profile.
What we can do is to always apply the MTU manually for the bridge (if explicitly
set by the profile), after doing so the kernel won't modify the MTU anymore,
which is what we want, problem is that kernel won't actually apply the MTU
to the netdev if it's not actually changing so we first apply it to
MTU-1 and then to the desired value.

For hidden networks, we usually don't have an SSID. We try to match
and fill the SSID based on the profiles that we have:
<debug> [1603798852.9918] device[6b383dca267b6878] (wlp2s0): matched hidden AP AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF => "SSID"
However, we should not clear that value again on the next update:
<trace> [1603798856.5724] sup-iface[66c1a0883a262394,0,wlp2s0]: BSS /fi/w1/wpa_supplicant1/Interfaces/0/BSSs/3 updated

Once we have a SSID, we can only update it to a better value,
but not clear it.

We sometimes store pointers to `CRBTree` in `CRBNode*` variables, so we
must make sure CRBTree has matching alignment guarantees. We already
check for that with static-assertions.
This commit aligns CRBTree with CRBNode for 2-byte aligned machines.
While at it, add a short comment explaining what the unions are for.

(cherry picked from commit 1250fcc2b1)
On m68k, 32bit integer are aligned to only 2 bytes. This breaks
assumptions and a static assertion of c-rbtree.
Explicitly require that the first field is aligned to at least 4 bytes.
This fixes the build and ensures that all valid pointers to a CRBTree have
the lowest two bits unset (so they can be used for storing 2 additional flags).
Use a union instead of aligning __parent_and_flags itself. That is
because alignas() cannot lower the natural alignment, so if we would
want to align __parent_and_flags, we could only do
alignas(sizeof(unsigned long) > 4 ? sizeof(unsigned long) : 4)
That would not be correct if "long" is 8 bytes long but had a natural
alignment of only 4. The union allows us to specify an alignment
of at least 4, but otherwise follow natural alignment.

Change the default DNS priority of VPNs to -50, to avoid leaking
queries out of full-tunnel VPNs.
This is a change in behavior. In particular:
- when using dns=default (i.e. no split-dns) before this patch both
VPN and the local name server were added (in this order) to
resolv.conf; the result was that depending on resolv.conf options
and resolver implementation, the name servers were tried in a
certain manner which does not prevent DNS leaks.
With this change, only the VPN name server is added to resolv.conf.
- When using a split-dns plugin (systemd-resolved or dnsmasq), before
this patch the full-tunnel VPN would get all queries except those
ending in a local domain, that would instead be directed to the
local server.
After this patch, the VPN gets all queries.
To revert to the old behavior, set the DNS priority to 50 in the
connection profile.
(cherry picked from commit af13081bec)
If a VPN has never-default=no but doesn't get a default route (this
can happen for example when the server pushes routes with
openconnect), and there are no search domains, then the name servers
pushed by the server would be unused. It is preferable in this case to
use the VPN DNS server for all queries.

With "connection.multi-connect", a profile can be activated multiple
times on a device with `nmcli connection show`. Also, a profile may be
in the process of deactivating on one device, while activating on
another one. So, in general it's possible that `nmcli connection show`
lists the same profile on multiple lines (reflecting their multiple
activation states).
If the user requests no fields that are part of the activation state,
then the active connections are ignored. For example with `nmcli
-f UUID,NAME connection show`. In that case, each profile is listed only
once.
On the other hand, with `nmcli -g UUID,NAME,DEVICE connection show` the
user again requested also to see the activation state, and a profile can
appear multiple times.
To handle that, we need to consider which fields were requested.
There was a bug where the "ACTIVE" field was not treated as part of the
activation state. That results in `nmcli -f UUID,NAME,ACTIVE connection
show` always returning "no". Fix that.

(cherry picked from commit 4eb3b5b9dd)
There are some Debian-supported architectures where `max_align_t` is
only aligned to 4-bytes. This is unfortunate and breaks our assumptions.
While glibc-malloc still guarantees 8 / 16 bytes alignment, this is not
necessarily guaranteed by the C standard (and alternative allocators
will deviate (see jemalloc, for instance)).
Fortunately, we only need 2 flags, so a 4-byte alignment is more than
enough.

(cherry picked from commit 1554936e33)
GDBusObjectManagerClient's interface-added and interface-removed signals
are not emitted when the new interfaces are added to a completely new
object or the removal results in the object disappearing. In other
words one interface is never reported both through interface-added and
object-added (or -removed) signals. This kind of makes sense but isn't
documented explicitly so interface-added seemed to correspond to DBus
InterfacesAdded signals which it doesn't.
We need to watch for both kinds of signals and although most things
work without us receiving the signals at all, it causes some race
conditions. For example on hotplug, devices wouldn't transition to
"disconnected" if a device was discovered by NMManager before it
appeared on IWD's dbus interface because that scenario relied on the
dbus signal.
