Even Fedora is no longer shipping the WiMAX SDK, so it's likely we'll
eventually accidentally break some of the code in src/devices/wimax/
(if we haven't already). Discussion on the list showed a consensus for
dropping support for WiMAX.
So, remove the SDK checks from configure.ac, remove the WiMAX device
plugin and associated manager support, and deprecate all the APIs.
For compatibility reasons, it is still possible to create and save
WiMAX connections, to toggle the software WiMAX rfkill state, and to
change the "WIMAX" log level, although none of these have any effect,
since no NMDeviceWimax will ever be created.
nmcli was only compiling in support for most WiMAX operations when NM
as a whole was built with WiMAX support, so that code has been removed
now as well. (It is still possible to use nmcli to create and edit
WiMAX connections, but those connections will never be activatable.)
This does not yet work, because the --order option
contains colons which bash completion considers as
separaters.
For now, implement it and ignore that problem. It
works correctly until you specify more then one
order-columns separated by colon.

Previously we would only complete connections given by ID.
The following would work:
$ nmcli connection modify id <ID> <TAB>
$ nmcli connection modify <ID> <TAB>
$ nmcli connection modify uuid <UUID> <TAB>
but the following would not work:
$ nmcli connection modify <UUID> <TAB>
Synopsis:
nmcli agent { secret | polkit | all }
The command runs separate NetworkManager secret agent or session polkit agent, or both.
It is useful when
- no other secret agent is available (such as GUI nm-applet, gnome-shell, KDE applet)
- no other polkit agent is available (such as polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1,
polkit-kde-authentication-agent-1 or lxpolkit)

It is useful for running nmcli without --ask option, i.e. non-interactively.
Example contents of the file:
wifi.psk: s e c r e t 12345
802-1x.password:kili manjaro
802-1x.pin:987654321
Only default (infrastructure) mode connections can be created and as it's not
possible to write mode=ap connections with ifcfg-rh plugins, they can't be
switched to mode=ap.
Later _nmcli_compl_ARGS() wants to check $OPTIONS_TYPE to behave differently
depending on the type. As we accept abbreviations of $OPTIONS_TYPE, let's normalize
the value, so that we don't have to consider abbrevations later on.

Create a new clients/ subdirectory at the top level, and move cli/ and
tui/ into it, as well as nm-online.c (which was previously in test/,
which made no sense).
cli/ was split into two subdirectories, src/ and completion/. While
this does simplify things (given that the completion file and the
binary both need to be named "nmcli"), it bloats the source tree, and
we can work around it by just renaming the completion file at install
time. Then we can combine the two directories into one and just have
it all under clients/cli/.
