This is required to add objects in the "Types and Values" section and
in the API index. Later, we may want to add useful content in those
empty comments.
This breaks API and ABI for the functions related to Reapply,
which got introduced in the current 1.1 development phase.
The version-id is here to allow users to error out if the connection
on the device was changed by a concurrent action.

GLib introspection requires all types returned by public functions to
be GObjects, basic types or boxed types in order to correctly manage
resources. NMLldpNeighbor was a plain struct and GI complained with:
Warning: NM: nm_lldp_neighbor_new: return value: Invalid non-constant return of bare structure or union; register as boxed type or (skip)
To fix this define NMLldpNeighbor as a boxed type.

Create NMIPConfig as the parent of NMIP4Config and NMIP6Config, and
remove the two subclasses from the public API; while it's convenient
to still have both internally, they are now identical to the outside
world.
libnm mostly used GPtrArrays in its APIs, except that arrays of
connections were usually GSLists. Fix this and make them GPtrArrays
too (and rename nm_client_list_connections() to
nm_client_get_connections() to match everything else).
Merge libnm's NMDeviceError and the daemon's NMDeviceError into a
single enum (in nm-errors.h). Register the domain with D-Bus, and add
a test that the client side decodes it correctly.
The daemon's NM_DEVICE_ERROR_CONNECTION_INVALID gets absorbed into
libnm's NM_DEVICE_ERROR_INVALID_CONNECTION, and
NM_DEVICE_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED_DEVICE_TYPE gets dropped, since it was
only returned from one place, which is now using
NM_DEVICE_ERROR_FAILED, since (a) it ought to be a "can't happen", and
(b) the only caller of that function just logs error->message and then
frees the error without ever looking at the code.
As with the settings, each device type was defining its own error
type, containing either redundant or non-useful error codes. Drop all
of the subtype-specific errors, and reduce things to just
NM_DEVICE_ERROR_FAILED, NM_DEVICE_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_CONNECTION, and
NM_DEVICE_ERROR_INVALID_CONNECTION.
The device-type-specific errors were only returned from their
nm_device_connection_compatible() implementations, so this is also a
good opportunity to simplify those, by moving duplicated functionality
into the base NMDevice implementation, and then allowing the
subclasses to assume that the connection has already been validated in
their own code. Most of the implementations now just check that the
connection has the correct type for the device (which can't be done at
the NMDevice level since some device types (eg, Ethernet) support
multiple connection types.)
Also, make sure that all of the error messages are localized.
Add the missing variant in most places in the API where previously
there was either only a synchronous version or only an asynchronous
version.
There is not yet a synchronous nm_client_activate_connection(),
nm_client_add_and_activate_connection(), or
nm_remote_settings_add_connection(), because the existing async code
depends on waiting for other asynchronous events, so making them run
synchronously is slightly more complicated. But these APIs can be
added later.
Make synchronous APIs take GCancellables, and make asynchronous APIs
use GAsyncReadyCallbacks and have names ending in "_async", with
"_finish" functions to retrieve the results.
Also, make nm_client_activate_connection_finish(),
nm_client_add_and_activate_finish(), and
nm_remote_settings_add_connection_finish() be (transfer full) rather
than (transfer none), because the refcounting semantics become
slightly confusing in some edge cases otherwise.
The NMDevice:state-reason property was awkward to work with since it
was a tuple of two values (state and reason), and likewise, although
we had nm_device_get_state() to return just the state, there was no
corresponding function to get just the reason.
Fix this; make the state-reason property contain just the
NMDeviceStateReason, and make nm_device_get_state_reason() return just
that.
Previously, src/nm-ip4-config.h, libnm/nm-ip4-config.h, and
libnm-glib/nm-ip4-config.h all used "NM_IP4_CONFIG_H" as an include
guard, which meant that nm-test-utils.h could not tell which of them
was being included (and so, eg, if you tried to include
nm-ip4-config.h in a libnm test, it would fail to compile because
nm-test-utils.h was referring to symbols in src/nm-ip4-config.h).
Fix this by changing the include guards in the non-API-stable parts of
the tree:
- libnm-glib/nm-ip4-config.h remains NM_IP4_CONFIG_H
- libnm/nm-ip4-config.h now uses __NM_IP4_CONFIG_H__
- src/nm-ip4-config.h now uses __NETWORKMANAGER_IP4_CONFIG_H__
And likewise for all other headers.
The two non-"nm"-prefixed headers, libnm/NetworkManager.h and
src/NetworkManagerUtils.h are now __NETWORKMANAGER_H__ and
__NETWORKMANAGER_UTILS_H__ respectively, which, while not entirely
consistent with the general scheme, do still mostly make sense in
isolation.
Add NetworkManager.h, which includes all of the other NM header, and
require all external users of libnm to use that rather than the
individual headers.
(An exception is made for nm-dbus-interface.h,
nm-vpn-dbus-interface.h, and nm-version.h, which can be included
separately.)
"NetworkManager.h"'s name (and non-standard capitalization) suggest
that it's some sort of high-level super-important header, but it's
really just low-level D-Bus stuff. Rename it to "nm-dbus-interface.h"
and likewise "NetworkManagerVPN.h" to "nm-vpn-dbus-interface.h"
Add reserved slots to those classes that were missing them (or had run
out), and sync up the number of slots across classes:
- 8 slots for "important" classes, abstract base classes, and
classes we expect we might need to add new virtual methods or
signals to later.
- 4 for everything else
Also, rearrange the class elements in a few places into standard order
(signals first, then methods).
GLib/Gtk have mostly settled on the convention that two-letter
acronyms in type names remain all-caps (eg, "IO"), but longer acronyms
become initial-caps-only (eg, "Tcp").
NM was inconsistent, with most long acronyms using initial caps only
(Adsl, Cdma, Dcb, Gsm, Olpc, Vlan), but others using all caps (DHCP,
PPP, PPPOE, VPN). Fix libnm and src/ to use initial-caps only for all
three-or-more-letter-long acronyms (and update nmcli and nmtui for the
libnm changes).
Remove deprecated functions and enum types.
For now, deprecated properties are still around, because removing them
would cause warnings when talking to older implementations.
This commit begins creating the new "libnm", which will replace
libnm-util and libnm-glib.
The main reason for the libnm-util/libnm-glib split is that the daemon
needs to link to libnm-util (to get NMSettings, NMConnection, etc),
but can't link to libnm-glib (because it uses many of the same type
names as the NetworkManager daemon. eg, NMDevice). So the daemon links
to only libnm-util, but basically all clients link to both.
With libnm, there will be only a single client-visible library, and
NetworkManager will internally link against a private "libnm-core"
containing the parts that used to be in libnm-util.
(The "libnm-core" parts still need to be in their own directory so
that the daemon can see those header files without also seeing the
ones in libnm/ that conflict with its own headers.)
