device: fix available-connections for a device for user-request
There are two callers of available_connections_add(). One from
cp_connection_added_or_updated() (which is when a connection
gets added/modified) and one from nm_device_recheck_available_connections().

They both call first nm_device_check_connection_available() to see
whether the profile is available on the device. They certainly
need to pass the same check flags, otherwise a profile might
be available in some cases, and not in others.

I didn't actually test this, but I think this could result
in a profile wrongly not being listed as an available-connection.
Moreover, that might mean, that `nmcli connection up $PROFILE`
might work to find the device/profile, but `nmcli device up $DEVICE`
couldn't find the suitable profile (because the latter calls
nm_device_get_best_connection(), which iterates the
available-connections). I didn't test this, because regardless of
that, it seems obvious that the conditions for when we call
available_connections_add() must be the same from both places.
So the only question is what is the right condition, and it would
seem that _NM_DEVICE_CHECK_CON_AVAILABLE_FOR_USER_REQUEST is the right
flag.

Fixes: 02dbe670ca ('device: for available connections check whether they are available for user-request')

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).
