NMRemoteSettings duplicates a bunch of NMObject's functionality that
it doesn't need to. In libnm-glib, it wouldn't have been possible to
port NMRemoteSettings to NMObject without breaking ABI, but now in
libnm we can do that.
As a side effect of this, NMRemoteSettings gains a "connections"
property, and "connection-added" and "connection-removed" signals
(with the former replacing the old "new-connection" signal). This also
removes the "connections-loaded" signal, since the connections will
now always be loaded (via the initialization of the "connections"
property) during init()/init_async().
Also, this removes NMRemoteConnection's "removed" signal, since it's
redundant with the new NMRemoteSettings::connection-removed (and
having the signal on NMRemoteSettings instead is more consistent with
other objects).
Drop the arptype-based nm_utils_hwaddr funcs, and rename the
length-based ones to no longer have _len in their names. This also
switches nm_utils_hwaddr_atoba() to using a length rather than an
arptype, and adds a length argument to nm_utils_hwaddr_valid() (making
nm_utils_hwaddr_valid() now a replacement for nm_utils_hwaddr_aton()
in some places, where we were only using aton() to do validity
checking).
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.)
Remove _nm_object_ensure_inited(), etc; objects that implement
GInitable are now mandatory-to-init().
Remove constructor() implementations that sometimes return NULL; do
all the relevant checking in init() instead.
Make nm_client_new() and nm_remote_settings_new() take a GCancellable
and a GError**.
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).
Since the API has not changed at this point, this is mostly just a
matter of updating Makefiles, and changing references to the library
name in comments.
NetworkManager cannot link to libnm due to the duplicated type/symbol
names. So it links to libnm-core.la directly, which means that
NetworkManager gets a separate copy of that code from libnm.so.
Everything else links to libnm.

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/.
