libnm: special handle serialization to D-Bus for "wifi.seen-bssid" 
"wifi.seen-bssid" is an unusual property, therefore very ugly due to the
inconsistency.

It is not a regular user configuration that makes sense to store to
disk or modify by the user. It gets populated by the daemon, and
stored in "/var/lib/NetworkManager/seen-bssids" file.

As such, how to convert this to/from D-Bus needs special handling.

This means, that the to/from D-Bus functions will only serialize the
property when the seen-bssids are specified via
NMConnectionSerializationOptions, which is what the daemon does.
Also, the daemon ignores seen-bssids when parsing the variant.

This has the odd effect that when the client converts a setting to
GVariant, the seen-bssids gets lost. That means, a conversion to GVariant
and back looses information. I think that is OK in this case, because the
main point of to/from D-Bus is not to have a lossless GVariant representation
of a setting, but to transfer the setting via D-Bus between client and
daemon. And transferring seen-bssids via D-Bus makes only sense from the daemon
to the client.

libnm-core-impl

NetworkManager provides a client library libnm. NetworkManager core does not (dynamically) link against all of libnm. Instead, it statically links against a part of it. That part is the static helper library libnm-core-impl.

libnm-core-impl implements (and provides) the API from libnm-core-public, which is part of the public API of libnm. In this form, libnm-core-impl is part of the implementation of libnm. It also implements (and provides) an internal API libnm-core-intern which can only be used by those who link statically against libnm-core-impl.

Only NetworkManager core and libnm are allowed to statically link with libnm-core-impl. Consequently, only those are allowed to include libnm-core-intern.

This directory should not be added to the include search path of other components as they are only allowed to include libnm-core-public and libnm-core-intern.
