Stephan Gerhold bc1cecbfc4 broadband-modem-qmi: choose endpoint number based on data port
At the moment the endpoint type/number is chosen based on the QMI
control port. The assumption is that multiplexing is implemented using
an additional protocol layer (e.g. QMAP) or that each network interface
has its own QMI control port.

This is not necessarily the case for BAM-DMUX. To use the built-in
multiplexing the WDS client must be bound to the correct data port.
This works already for older firmware versions using "Bind Data Port"
(SIO port numbers), but not for newer ones using "Bind Mux Data Port"
(endpoint type/interface numbers).

Make it work for newer firmware versions as well by choosing the
endpoint type/number based on the data port similar to the existing
implementation for SIO port numbers.

Note: The correct endpoint interface number is currently only used for
the steps in mm-bearer-qmi. Ideally more refactoring should be done in
mm-port-qmi to call WDA Set Data Format for each of the endpoints.
In practice it usually works fine without because the data format is
set correctly by default.

ModemManager.
ModemManager provides a unified high level API for communicating with mobile
broadband modems, regardless of the protocol used to communicate with the
actual device (Generic AT, vendor-specific AT, QCDM, QMI, MBIM...).

Using.
ModemManager is a system daemon and is not meant to be used directly from
the command line. However, since it provides a DBus API, it is possible to use
'dbus-send' commands or the new 'mmcli' command line interface to control it
from the terminal. The devices are queried from udev and automatically updated
based on hardware events, although a manual re-scan can also be requested to
look for RS232 modems.

Implementation.
ModemManager is a DBus system bus activated service (meaning it's started
automatically when a request arrives). It is written in C, using glib and gio.
Several GInterfaces specify different features that the modems support,
including the generic MMIfaceModem3gpp and MMIfaceModemCdma which provide basic
operations for 3GPP (GSM, UMTS, LTE) or CDMA (CDMA1x, EV-DO) modems. If a given
feature is not available in the modem, the specific interface will not be
exported in DBus.

Plugins.
Plugins are loaded on startup, and must implement the MMPlugin interface. It
consists of a couple of methods which tell the daemon whether the plugin
supports a port and to create custom MMBroadbandModem implementations. It most
likely makes sense to derive custom modem implementations from one of the
generic classes and just add (or override) operations which are not standard.
There are multiple fully working plugins in the plugins/ directory that can be
used as an example for writing new plugins. Writing new plugins is highly
encouraged! The plugin API is open for changes, so if you're writing a plugin
and need to add or change some public method, feel free to suggest it!
