The strings holding the names used for libraries have also been
moved to different variables. This way they would be less error
as these variables can be reused easily and any typing error
would be quickly detected.
Although it is possible to generate distributable files on meson
since version 0.41 by using the `ninja dist` command, autotools does
different things that end up creating a different distributable
file.
meson build files have been added to autotools build files as
distributable files, so the whole meson port would also be
distributed.

These files are a template how to add a new nm-setting-* implementation.
We are not going to add new files to the deprecated libnm-util library,
hence a template for libnm-util is pointless.
libnm-core doesn't have a corresponding template file. Personally, I
don't think such a template are a great idea either, because
- People are not aware that it exists. Hence, it's unused, badly
maintained and quite possibly does not follow current best practice.
- Just copy an actual settings implementation and start from there.
That seems better to me than having a template.
For internal compilation we want to be able to use deprecated
API without warnings.
Define the version min/max macros to effectively disable deprecation
warnings.
However, don't do it via CFLAGS option in the makefiles, instead hack it
to "nm-default.h". After all, *every* source file that is for internal
compilation needs to include this header as first.
When compiling NetworkManager with --enable-gtk-doc outside the
source tree, the generated documents are slightly different from
those generated in tree. This patch fixes that missed COPYING file in
$(top_builddir) and adds $(top_builddir)/libnm-util to DOC_SOURCE_DIR.

NetworkManager.h, NetworkManagerVPN.h, and nm-version.h are part of
the libnm-util API, so move them to libnm-util.
include/ still contains headers that are strictly NM-internal (eg,
nm-glib-compat.h).
Add versioned NM_DEPRECATED_IN_* and NM_AVAILABLE_IN_* macros, and tag
new/deprecated functions accordingly. (All currently-deprecated
functions are assumed to have been deprecated in 0.9.10.)
Add NM_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED and NM_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED macros which
can be set to determine which versions will cause warnings.
With the current settings, external consumers of the
libnm-util/libnm-glib APIs will have MIN_REQUIRED and MAX_ALLOWED both
set to NM_VERSION_0_9_8 by default, meaning they will get warnings
about functions added in 0.9.10. NM internally sets
NM_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED to NM_VERSION_NEXT_STABLE to ensure that it is
always allowed to use all APIs.
