A new value for NM80211Mode is introduced (NM_802_11_MODE_AP) and the
new mode is passed to wpa_supplicant analogous to adhoc-mode.
The places which need to know the interface mode have been extended to
handle the new mode.
If the configuration does not contain a fixed frequency, a channel is
selected the same way as with adhoc-mode before.
When NM was registering all of its enum types by hand, it was using
NamesLikeThis rather than the default names-like-this for the "nick"
values. When we switched to using glib-mkenums, this resulted in
dbus-glib using different strings for the D-Bus error names, causing
compatibility problems.
Fix this by using glib-mkenums annotations to manually fix all the
enum values back to what they were before. (This can't be done in a
more automated way, because the old names aren't 100% consistent. Eg,
"UNKNOWN" frequently becomes "UnknownError" rather than just
"Unknown".)
Rather than generating enum classes by hand (and complaining in each
file that "this should really be standard"), use glib-mkenums.
Unfortunately, we need a very new version of glib-mkenums in order to
deal with NM's naming conventions and to fix a few other bugs, so just
import that into the source tree temporarily.
Also, to simplify the use of glib-mkenums, import Makefile.glib from
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/654395.
To avoid having to run glib-mkenums for every subdirectory of src/,
add a new "generated" directory, and put the generated enums files
there.
Finally, use Makefile.glib for marshallers too, and generate separate
ones for libnm-glib and NetworkManager.
"mac-address-blacklist" property is added to the ethernet and WiFi connections.
It is the MAC addresses list of devices on which the connection won't be
activated.
Original patch (NM_0_8 branch) from Thomas Bechtold <thomasbechtold@jpberlin.de>
This commit implements MAC cloning feature in NetworkManager. To support that,
'PermHwAddress' property is added into *.Device.Wired and *.Device.Wireless
interfaces. The permanent MAC address is obtained when creating the device, and
is used for 'locking' connections to the device. If a cloned MAC is specified
in connection to be activated, the MAC is set to the interface in stage1. While
disconecting, the permanent MAC is set back to the interface.
Add a GError argument to nm_connection_verify() and nm_setting_verify(),
and add error enums to each NMSetting subclass. Each NMSetting subclass now
returns a descriptive GError when verification fails.

- (set_property, get_property, nm_setting_wireless_class_init): add the
'adhoc-create' property, which when TRUE indicates that NM should
create this connection as an adhoc wifi network if it's not found
as an adhoc network during scanning. Can be used to auto-create
adhoc networks when used in combination with autoconnect.

Rework NMSetting structures: Move each setting to it's own file.
Convert to GObject. Remove home grown setting types and use
GTypes.
Use GObject property introspection for hash conversion,
enumerating
properties, etc.

* src/*: The API of NMSetting and NMConnection changed a bit:
* Getting
a setting from connection takes the setting type now. Also,
since
the settings are in multiple files, include relevant settings.
