This fixes an assertion during shutdown. NMManager:dispose()
calls remove_device(), which eventually hit the assertion
in nm_default_route_manager_ip4_get_best_device().
Remove the assertion, but also make sure that the function only
returns devices from the provided list. It is counter intuitive,
that the function might return devices that are not in the provided
list.

We'll ever have WWAN devices with a NULL gateway because the IPv6 over
WWAN still uses router advertisements to get a prefix. Thus you'll
always have a gateway if the device has real IPv6 connectivity.
For the IPv4 case, we still allow default routes without gateway on
WWAN.

Now that both VPN and devices are managed (and ordered) by
NMDefaultRouteManager, refactor get_best_config() to use the
priority accordingly.
Before, we would first iterate over all VPN connections and
returning the best one. Only if no suitable VPN connection
was found, a best device would be returned.
Modify get_best_config() to treat VPN and device the same and
return the best one based on the route metric.
With this change, get_best_config() gives consistent results
together with get_best_device(). Also, you can configure
that a device gets a higher priority then a VPN.

get_best_device() has two different modes depending on the @fully_activated argument.
If @fully_activated, it only considers devices that are considered as active.
Otherwise, it returns the best activating device (if that device is expected
to be better then any of the already activated devices).
Before, the check whether an activated device is considered best device
also involved looking at the device state. This redundancy was harmful
because part of NMDefaultRouteManager considered a device as fully activated,
but get_best_device() might not return them.
Split get_best_device() in two parts. The one part _ipx_get_best_activating_device()
now checks for still activating devices. When inspecting devices with
an entry, those devices are weighted according to _ipx_get_best_device().
That means that both functions now give a consistent result.

Extend NMDefaultRouteManager to track NMVpnConnection beside
NMDevice. That way, all default routes are managed by
NMDefaultRouteManager.
For VPN connections the manager also tracks connections that are
set never_default. That is useful because NMPolicy still uses VPNs
without default route to setup DNS. Hence, NMDefaultRouteManager
trackes those connections to have the relative priority of the
devices.
Interestingly, that means that for VPNs that are ipv4.never-default,
ipv4.route-metric still has an effect in determining relative priorities
for DNS configuration.
This commit only adds the parts to track the default route. NMPolicy
still sets the route as before.

NMDefaultRouteManager has a sorted list of routes. Change get_best_device()
to better consider that list when choosing a best device.
Always prefer the priority as reported from entry->effective_metric
if the device is registered to have a default route. Before for
!fully_activated, we choose the metric based on
nm_device_get_ipx_route_metric().
Add more checks in case of equal priority. For @fully_activated,
always prefer the device that is sorted by NMDefaultRouteManager.
For non @fully_activated, prefer the device with an entry.

Up to now, NMPolicy would iterate over all devices to find the "best"
device and assign the default route to that device.
A better approach is to add a default route to *all* devices that
are never-default=no. The relative priority is choosen according to
the route metrics.
If two devices receive the same metric, we want to prefer the device
that activates first. That way, the default route sticks to the same
device until a better device activates or the device deactivates.
Hence, the order of activation is imporant in this case (as it is
already now).
Also, if several devices have identical metrics, increment their
metrics so that every metric is unique.
This makes the routing deterministic according to what we choose as best
device.
A special case is assumed devices. In this case we cannot adjust the metric
in face of equal metrics.
Add a new singleton class NMDefaultRouteManager that has a list of all
devices and their default routes. The manager will order the devices by
their priority and configure the routes using platform.
Also update the metric for VPN connections. Later we will track VPN
routes also via NMDefaultRouteManager. For now, fix the VPN metric because
otherwise VPNs would always get metric 1024 (which is usually much larger then the
device metrics).

When adding a default route fails, the most common
reason is that we don't have a direct route to the gateway.
In that case, NMPolicy tries to add a direct route to
the gateway and then retries adding the default route.
For VPN however, previously NMPolicy would not added a direct
route to the gateway via the VPN device. Instead it would add a
direct route to the external gateway via the parent interface.
That is wrong.
Indeed the external gateway must be reachable directly not via the
VPN interface itself. But for that the vpn connection already sets
a route via nm_device_set_vpn4_config().

These lines are part of NM for a very long time.
I think they are wrong, because the default route is not

Make use of the new setting nm_setting_ip_config_get_route_metric()
If set, this override the route metric determined based on the device
type.
Similarly for VPN also prefer the setting from the connection. Thereby change
the default priority (for VPN that have their own device) to NM_VPN_ROUTE_METRIC_DEFAULT
instead of NM_PLATFORM_ROUTE_METRIC_DEFAULT. The latter would be a very
low priority compared to the default metrics for devices.

Before, we would always call unanimously nm_device_get_priority()
to get the default route metric for a device. Add new functions
nm_device_get_ip4_route_priority() and nm_device_get_ip6_route_priority()
and use them at the proper places.
Also add new function nm_vpn_connection_get_ip4_route_metric() and
nm_vpn_connection_get_ip6_route_metric().

nm_device_get_priority() is used to select the "best" device
for the default route. The absolute values don't matter
at that point and the relative ordering is not changed by
this patch.
It is also directly used for route priority/metric. As we soon
allow the user to overwrite the setting, we want to get more
space between the individual device-types.
That way, a user could overwrite the default metric for a wifi
device to be 109 (making it lower then the default value 110), but
still less preferred then other non-wifi types.
Obviously, this patch is a visible change of behavior as now
routes get different metrics assigned.

As we use NMLinkType in NetworkManagerUtils.h, we cannot use
the utils header without nm-platform.h. That is clearly wrong.
Apparently NMLinkType has a wider use outside of platform (and
its name is not prefixed with 'platform' either).
Move the enum definition to nm-types.h.

A NMActiveConnection may disappear before a match with NMDevice is found. In
such case recheck_pending_activations() would never call the activation
callback and the client would hang indefinitely:
libnm-Message: PC: (0x95bf088) NMManager:active-connections => '['/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/225']' (ao / NMActiveConnection)
libnm-Message: PC: (0x95bf088) NMManager:activating-connection => ''/'' (o / NMActiveConnection)
libnm-Message: PC: (0x95d0a28) NMActiveConnection:state => '4' (u)
libnm-Message: PC: (0x95d0a28) NMActiveConnection:devices => '[]' (ao / NMDevice)
libnm-Message: PC: (0x95bf088) NMManager:active-connections => '[]' (ao / NMActiveConnection)
*hang*
Let's listen for active-connection-removed and tear down the activation with
an error if the removed connection is one we're activating.
Rename NMVpnPluginUiInterface to NMVpnEditorPlugin (to clarify that
it's unrelated to NMVpnPlugin), and add it to NetworkManager.h.
Rename NMVpnPluginUiWidgetInterface to NMVpnEditor, because it's not a
widget, and will soon be used for non-gui editing too. (Also, add a
placeholder for the method that non-gui editing will use.)
Fix the typedefs to not mix up the (dummy) NMVpnEditorPlugin and
NMVpnEditor types with the types of their interface structs. Update to
use G_DEFINE_INTERFACE.
Drop NMVpnPluginUiInterfaceProp; it doesn't matter what codes plugin
implementations use for the interface properties that they implement.
