Fernando Fernandez Mancera d238ff487b ipvlan: add support to IPVLAN interface
This patch add support to IPVLAN interface. IPVLAN is a driver for a
virtual network device that can be used in container environment to
access the host network. IPVLAN exposes a single MAC address to the
external network regardless the number of IPVLAN device created inside
the host network. This means that a user can have multiple IPVLAN
devices in multiple containers and the corresponding switch reads a
single MAC address. IPVLAN driver is useful when the local switch
imposes constraints on the total number of MAC addresses that it can
manage.

libnmc-setting

A client library on top of libnm (and libnm-base). Like libnmc-base, this is a helper library that a libnm client could use.

But its purpose is more specific. It's mainly about providing a generic API for handling connection properties. As such, it's only used by nmcli and in practice also specific to nmcli.

Theoretically, the API is supposed to be generic, so we could imagine another client that uses this beside nmcli.

Like libnm-base, this has a similar purpose and application as ../libnm-client-aux-extern/, the difference is that it's even more specific.
