When activating a device, we must progress the device state to
disconnected state.
This matters when activating a device without carrier. In this
case we would have skipped DISCONNECTED state. Skipping the
device state then leads to other issues like a slave device
never noticing that the master got ready.
Device subclasses (for example NMDeviceWifi) can use the ifindex in
their constructor(), but the value now is set later in
parent class constructed(). This causes the following:
nm_platform_wifi_get_capabilities: assertion 'ifindex > 0' failed
Fix this by initializing ifindex earlier in NMDevice's
constructor(). While at it, remove the
nm_assert (pllink->type != NM_LINK_TYPE_NONE);
assertion, since pllink can be NULL there.

This is to make it possible for the device factories to indicate the desired
link type and make it possible to avoid matching the unrealized device to a
platform device of different link type.
- cleanup _NMLOG()
- implement state_to_string() based on NM_UTILS_STRING_LOOKUP_TABLE(),
which prints unknown values as numeric
- add logging when setting device and state
- cleanup logging in check-master-ready to consistently
print relevant information
- update logging in set_master() to match simpler logging
format like set_device() and set_state().
We often lookup the private data and retrieve it via NM_DEVICE_GET_PRIVATE(),
which in turn calls G_TYPE_INSTANCE_GET_PRIVATE().
Instead cache the pointer to the private data.
There are up- and downsides:
- requries additional sizeof(gpointer) bytes for each NMDevice.
+ retrieving the private pointer will be slightly faster.
+ easier debugging in gdb as it is currently often a pain to
retrieve the private data.
But most importantly, the allows to change our common pattern
to first cache the private data in a variable @priv. That is
often cumbersome to write, especially for short functions.
This change gives us a choice to use self->priv directly.
Such a change should not be aimed for every class. Instead it makes
mostly sense for NMDevice, where it pays off better due to the
class' size and ubiquitous use.

Showcase for the new macros NM_UTILS_STRING_LOOKUP_TABLE() and
NM_UTILS_STRING_LOOKUP_TABLE_DEFINE_STATIC().
It changes behavior in case of looking up an invalid/unknown
state reason. Previously it would just have returned "unknown"
-- which was indistinguishable from a regular "unknown" value.
Now it returns the numeric id as a string. The string is allocated
with alloca(), which is desired but one should be aware of the pitfalls:
- prevents the caller from being inlined
- bad idea to do in a loop.
- it controls echoing passwords input on terminal
- it replaces --show-secrets in 'nmcli connection show', which is deprecated now
- it replaces --show-password in 'nmcli device wifi hotspot', which is deprecated now
These initscripts weren't modified for a long time. Are they just
unused or flawless? It seems they are no longer best-practice
(e.g. NetworkManager supports reloading configuration via SIGHUP,
which none of these scripts implement).
Nowadays some distributions moved to systemd and quite possible
nobody uses these scripts. Also, any potential downstream user
probably has an adjusted copy of them in their repositories.
Just remove them.

Before the device is setup, we call nm_platform_tun_get_properties() without
a valid ifindex. That triggered an assertion [1].
Thereby, change nm_platform_tun_get_properties() to effectively clear
the tun properties when we are unable to fetch them. Also, never modify
the tun-mode of NMDeviceTun.
