If processing a key-value pair as a bearer property fails, we need to
know if it failed due to the key being unknown or due to some other
reason (e.g. failure parsing value of a known key).
We'll only try with the Simple.Connect properties if the key is
reported as unknown in the bearer properties.
This will help us better identify errors if e.g. an invalid value is
given to a known key. E.g. "yes" was invalid for allow-roaming here:
daemon.notice netifd: wan (30476): simple connect=apn=internet,ip-type=ipv4,allow-roaming=yes
daemon.notice netifd: wan (30476): Error parsing connect string: 'Invalid properties string, unexpected key 'allow-roaming''
We want to expose in the Modem interface the list of supported IP families, and
the easiest way to do so is to have the IP family as flags, and provide in the
interface a single enum.
Also, a value of 0 for a MMBearerIpFamily specifies that no flags are set, so
just rename it to 'NONE'.
And add a new 'ANY' value which sets all flags to 1.
This patch adds a 'bearer-default-ip-family' property to MMBearer, which
specifies the default IP family to use for a bearer when no explicit
value is given via the simple connect properties. The default IP family
is set to IPv4 in MMBearer but can be overridden by a MMBearer subclass,
which allows a modem plugin to specify an appropriate default value.
For bearers using STATIC or DHCP IP method, the modem itself is the one
negotiating authentication with the network. The new `allowed-auth' property
allows users to specify which authentication method(s) are allowed to be used.

It's pointless to have libmm-common around, just merge it into libmm-glib and
make ModemManager depend on libmm-glib directly. At the end, the non-common
stuff in libmm-glib is really minimal.
Renamed `MMCommonBearerProperties' to `MMBearerProperties', and removed the
`MMBearerProperties' provided in libmm-glib. We'll just use the original one
from libmm-common always.
