Gris Ge 690d0a8682 activation: Allow changing controller of exposed active connection
When activating a port with its controller deactivating by new
activation, NM will register `state-change` signal waiting controller to
have new active connections. Once controller got new active connection,
the port will invoke `nm_active_connection_set_controller()` which lead
to assert error on
    g_return_if_fail(!nm_dbus_object_is_exported(NM_DBUS_OBJECT(self)))

because this active connection is already exposed as DBUS object.

To fix the problem, we remove the restriction on controller been
write-only and notify DBUS object changes for controller property.

src/

Most of the subdirectories are static helper libraries, which get linked into one of the final build artifacts (like libnm, nmcli or NetworkManager). Static libraries are internal API.

The only public API is libnm, which is a shared library provided client implementations.

Our own clients (like nmcli and nmtui) also use libnm, the shared library. But they also use additional static helper libraries.

The daemon statically links against a part of libnm, the part that provides connection profiles. That is libnm-core. libnm-core is thus statically linked with libnm and the daemon. It does not get linked by clients that already link with libnm (like nmtui).
