This patch is introducing the wired setting accept-all-mac-addresses
property. The value corresponds to the kernel flag IFF_PROMISC.
When accept-all-mac-address is enabled, the interface will accept all
the packets without checking the destination mac address.

Asserting against user input is not nice, because it always requires the
caller to check the value first. Don't do that.
Also, don't even check. You can set NM_SETTING_WIRED_S390_OPTIONS
property to any values (except duplicated keys). The C add function
should not be more limited than that. This is also right because
we have verify() which checks for valid settings. And it does so beyond
only checking the keys.
So you could set NM_SETTING_WIRED_S390_OPTIONS properties to invalid
keys. And you could use nm_setting_wired_add_s390_option() to set
invalid values. No need to let nm_setting_wired_add_s390_option() check
for valid keys.
- integers are unsigned. Mark the constants as such.
- assert that we don't overflow G_MAXUINT32. Note that
nm_setting_wired_get_s390_option()'s index argument
is of type guint32. So with that API you cannot track
more than G_MAXUINT32 elements.
- use nm_utils_strdup_reset(). It's less code, but it's
also self-assignment safe (contrary to the previous code).
A const global variable is stored in immutable memory.
You thus get a crash trying to modify it, which is desirable.
The user is really not supposed to modify this buffer,
even if nm_setting_wired_get_valid_s390_options() wrongly
returns a non-const pointer.
"libnm-core/" is rather complicated. It provides a static library that
is linked into libnm.so and NetworkManager. It also contains public
headers (like "nm-setting.h") which are part of public libnm API.
Then we have helper libraries ("libnm-core/nm-libnm-core-*/") which
only rely on public API of libnm-core, but are themself static
libraries that can be used by anybody who uses libnm-core. And
"libnm-core/nm-libnm-core-intern" is used by libnm-core itself.
Move "libnm-core/" to "src/". But also split it in different
directories so that they have a clearer purpose.
The goal is to have a flat directory hierarchy. The "src/libnm-core*/"
directories correspond to the different modules (static libraries and set
of headers that we have). We have different kinds of such modules because
of how we combine various code together. The directory layout now reflects
this.
