Old python tests using the old ModemManager interface are removed, as mmcli
provides already a much nicer way to test the DBus interface.
Also, mm-test.py and the PPPD plugin get removed, which were also using the old
interface, and which were not very useful for testing newer non-PPP based
modems.

The '--with-polkit' configure switch now supports more options than just yes
or no:
* strict: Active user needs to explicitly authenticate when peforming an
operation defined in the Device.Control, Messaging, Location or Contacts
interfaces. Polkit policy is set to 'auth_self_keep'.
* permissive: Active user doesn't need to explicitly authenticate when
peforming an operation defined in the Device.Control, Messaging, Location or
Contacts interfaces. Polkit policy is set to 'yes'.
* none: don't use polkit.
If '--with-polkit' is not given, usage will be automatically decided based on
the presence of the Polkit headers in the system (if headers found, strict
policy will be applied, otherwise none).
Also:
* '--with-polkit' is equivalent to '--with-polkit=strict'
* '--with-polkit=yes' is equivalent to '--with-polkit=strict'
* '--with-polkit=no' is equivalent to '--with-polkit=none'
* '--without-polkit' is equivalent to '--with-polkit=none'
By default, ModemManager will always apply the strict policy, in order to
protect the user from unwanted operations in the modem (e.g. getting the PIN
locked forever after wrong PIN/PUK unlock attempts).

These diagrams are not expected to change much, so just include the generated
PNGs in the repository, and remove 'dia' from the prerequisites to build the
documentation.
Since glib 2.32, we can use g_byte_array_new_take() to build a new GByteArray
from an own allocated buffer, so skip playing with the GByteArray internals.
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.
The build system sets up this variable for us, so use it rather than
hardcoding "pkg-config" which might be the wrong one.
Equivalent to the one done by
Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
in libqmi.
For those who don't care about the QMI support through libqmi-glib, or if you're
stuck with glib 2.30 (libqmi-glib requires 2.32), this configure switch allows
disabling the QMI support completely.
The logic to detect cdc-wdm ports is still in place, but the QMI probing is
never launched at them. Also, all QMI-related objects won't be compiled.
The QMI protocol is updated frequently with new commands replacing and
improving some already existing ones, which get marked as deprecated.
Instead of initially try to cover the logic with both the old and the new
commands, we'll default to use only the old deprecated ones, which should be
supported also in the modems with newer services.
The supported already implemented for the new QMI commands is hidden behind a
`--with-newest-qmi-commands' configure switch.
Once the implementation is fully developed and tested using the deprecated
commands we can then focus in including the support for the new ones.
