- All internal source files (except "examples", which are not internal)
should include "config.h" first. As also all internal source
files should include "nm-default.h", let "config.h" be included
by "nm-default.h" and include "nm-default.h" as first in every
source file.
We already wanted to include "nm-default.h" before other headers
because it might contains some fixes (like "nm-glib.h" compatibility)
that is required first.
- After including "nm-default.h", we optinally allow for including the
corresponding header file for the source file at hand. The idea
is to ensure that each header file is self contained.
- Don't include "config.h" or "nm-default.h" in any header file
(except "nm-sd-adapt.h"). Public headers anyway must not include
these headers, and internal headers are never included after
"nm-default.h", as of the first previous point.
- Include all internal headers with quotes instead of angle brackets.
In practice it doesn't matter, because in our public headers we must
include other headers with angle brackets. As we use our public
headers also to compile our interal source files, effectively the
result must be the same. Still do it for consistency.
- Except for <config.h> itself. Include it with angle brackets as suggested by
https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Configuration-Headers
Rather than randomly including one or more of <glib.h>,
<glib-object.h>, and <gio/gio.h> everywhere (and forgetting to include
"nm-glib-compat.h" most of the time), rename nm-glib-compat.h to
nm-glib.h, include <gio/gio.h> from there, and then change all .c
files in NM to include "nm-glib.h" rather than including the glib
headers directly.
(Public headers files still have to include the real glib headers,
since nm-glib.h isn't installed...)
Also, remove glib includes from header files that are already
including a base object header file (which must itself already include
the glib headers).
The function was changed to return NULL instead of empty hash by commit
ad56cfa914. Later, the condition had to be
relaxed for NMSettingGeneric (commit 4d32618264).
Unforfunately, it shows up that there are other use cases that require
presence of a setting (that might have all properties default), such as
NMSettingBridgePort for bridge slave connections.
libnm already behaves this way, since commit
6325c596c0.

config.h should be included from every .c file, and it should be
included before any other include. Fix that.
(As a side effect of how I did this, this also changes us to
consistently use "config.h" rather than <config.h>. To the extent that
it matters [which is not much], quotes are more correct anyway, since
we're talking about a file in our own build tree, not a system
include.)
- Remove list of authors from files that had them; these serve no
purpose except to quickly get out of date (and were only used in
libnm-util and not libnm-glib anyway).
- Just say "Copyright", not "(C) Copyright" or "Copyright (C)"
- Put copyright statement after the license, not before
- Remove "NetworkManager - Network link manager" from the few files
that contained it, and "libnm_glib -- Access network status &
information from glib applications" from the many files that
contained it.
- Remove vim modeline from nm-device-olpc-mesh.[ch], add emacs modeline
to files that were missing it.
4d326182 changed connection hashing slightly such that now base type settings
are always returned even if they are empty. Unfortunately a bunch of code in
the settings hashed connections with the ONLY_SECRETS flag and then checked
whether the returned hash was NULL or not to determine whether there were
any secrets, and then called nm_connection_update_secrets() with the hash.
nm_connection_update_secrets() would fail in the case where a setting
name was given, but the passed-in secrets hash did not contain any secrets
for the requested setting. Instead, the function should return success
to match the semantics of passing in an entire connection hash which may
not have any secrets either.
GObject creation cannot normally fail, except for types that implement
GInitable and take a GError in their _new() method. Some NM types
override constructor() and return NULL in some cases, but these
generally only happen in the case of programmer error (eg, failing to
set a mandatory property), and so crashing is reasonable (and most
likely inevitable anyway).
So, remove all NULL checks after calls to g_object_new() and its
myriad wrappers.

The core problem was that the Update would trigger a write to
disk to save the connection's new settings, which called
nm_settings_connection_replace_settings(). Which saved existing
transient (agent/unsaved) secrets, replaced settings with the
new ones from Update(), then copied back the old transient
secrets. This was to ensure that changes triggered from getting
agent secrets during activation (which might write the connection
out to disk if new system secrets were provided, which triggered
an inotify read-back of the connection, which blew away the
transient secrets just returned from the agent) didn't blow away
transient secrets. Unfortunately that fix was too general.
As a quick hack for now, copy the new secrets and re-apply them
after nm_connection_replace_settings() has run. We'll do the
actual fix later, but it's more involved and needs more testing
so we don't want to apply it this close to release.
It's easier to be able to pass both a whole hashed connection, or just
a hashed setting to the function, and have it figure out what needs
to be updated based on the given setting_name.
Add some testcases to make sure that all works correctly too.
