nm_device_state_changed() had a check to make sure it wasn't entered
recursively (which had been a source of bugs in the past), but it was
global rather than per-device, so it caused errors when VLANs changed
state in response to their parent device changing state. Fix that.

Some devices aren't expected to support carrier detection, so there's
no reason to have NMDevice log about it. Move that message into
NMDeviceEthernet, where failure to support carrier-detect really is
worth mentioning.
Also, make NMDeviceEthernet use NMPlatform for carrier-detection
detection (and move the MII carrier-detect-support check from
NMDeviceEthernet into NMLinuxPlatform).
Finally, have NMDeviceGeneric actually check whether the device
supports carrier detect, rather than just always assuming it doesn't.
This is really, really old 2007-era code. Any NMDevice that gets
created is already supported, so there's no reason to have every
device set NM_DEVICE_CAP_NM_SUPPORTED. For those subclasses that
only set that capability, we can remove the subclass method
entirely. Next, it turns out that the "type capabilities" code
wasn't used anywhere, so remove that too. Lastly, "cipsec"
interfaces haven't been used on linux in about 5 years (they
were created by the Cisco binary-only IPSec kernel module for
Cisco VPNs long before vpnc and openswan came around) so we can
remove that code too.
With carrier handling moved to NMDevice, the only thing left in
NMDeviceWired was speed, which was actually ethernet-specific anyway.
So move that to NMDeviceEthernet, and then kill NMDeviceWired.
Change the way that nm-properties-changed-signal works, and parse the
dbus-binding-tool-generated info to get the exact list of properties
that it's expected to export.
This makes NM_PROPERTY_PARAM_NO_EXPORT unnecessary, and also fixes the
problem of properties like NMDevice:hw-address being exported on
classes where it shouldn't be.
And change src/main.c to use the local allocation macros. This
results in much cleaner code, as one can see from the diff.
Because libgsystem is designed for nonrecursive make, it fits best in
the current recursive setup if we build . first. This will be a lot
nicer when we switch NM to a nonrecursive setup.

core: add a "default-unmanaged" setting for devices
Newly-created master interfaces are in the UNAVAILABLE state, but if
they were created in response to a slave connection being activated,
the master must be activated immediately too. But a device cannot
be activated unless it's in the DISCONNECTED state, so restore that
state change.
nm_device_release_one_slave() may change the list head, but the
for loop in nm_device_master_release_slaves() can't handle that.
Use a while loop instead.
Same fix as in commit 195a09d7c0.
NL_AUTO_PROVIDE is not a valid flag for this call and it's coincidental
with ROUTE_CACHE_CONTENT, which is not what we want.
One result arising from this fix is that per-device routes are now
assigned priorities correctly. This means, for instance, you can have a
wired and wireless connection on the same network, and have the wired
connection always take precedence whilst it's available.

If a kernel interface changes its MAC address, and NM is not
supposed to manage that interface, ifupdown needs to notice
that MAC address change and tell NM that the unmanaged devices
have changed, so that NM continues to not touch the device
after the MAC has changed.
well_known_interfaces -> eni_ifaces, since it's a hash of any
interfaces read from /etc/network/interfaces.
well_known_ifaces -> kernel_ifaces, since it's a hash of any
network subsystem interface the kernel knows about
'iface_connections' is really the list of all NMIfupdownConnections
known to the plugin, read from /e/n/i and hashed by block name. Since
ifupdown doesn't store anything *except* connections from /e/n/i,
just rename it to 'connections' to reduce confusion with the
well_known_interfaces and well_known_ifaces hashes.
It *is* legitimate to (re-)activate a connection on an already-active
device, so remove the newly-added "sanity check" preventing that.
Pointed out by jklimes.
If for some reason the connection is disrupted and the AP rejects
reconnection attempts (perhaps the driver has a bug, you get
disconnected, and the AP rejects association because it thinks
you're already associated), the AP object was being removed from
the scan list by code meant to handle out-of-range or turned-off
APs. Thus even though the AP was in-range, it wouldn't be
found and the connection retried until the next scan.
Instead, only remove the AP object from the scan list if the
supplicant hasn't been able to exchange any frames with the
AP. This preserves the out-of-range handling, becuase the
supplicant wouldn't be able to talk to the AP and thus
'ssid_found' will be FALSE, and also ensures that an in-range
but confused AP says in the scan list and will be retried
immediately.
This will help to store more link attributes in NMFakePlatform link
array than in public NMPlatformLink array. Some of the future
attributes will not be part of the NMPlatform API.
Although having different parts of NM in different subdirectories
keeps the source tree neat, it has made the build messy, particularly
because of cross-dependencies between the subdirs.
Reorganize to build all of the pieces of the NetworkManager binary
from src/Makefile, and only use recursive make for test programs,
helper binaries, and plugins.
As part of this, get rid of all the per-directory convenience
libraries, and switch to building a single top-level
libNetworkManager.la, containing everything except main.c, which all
of the test programs can then link against.
Due to recent changes not all settings plugins send an IP config setting
when the method is 'auto'. Some old code in the NMDevice IP config paths
mishandled this. Fix that up; the expected behavior should be:
1) if the device is a slave, IP configuration is DISABLE/IGNORED
2) if the connection has an IP4 or IP6 setting, use the setting's method
3) default to AUTO
The bits in the result of ETHTOOL_GFEATURES are not in any defined
order; you need to use ETHTOOL_GSTRINGS to get the names associated
with each bit to find what each one does. Fix
NMPlatformLinux:link_supports_vlans() to do this.

Add a new libnm-glib method to get the type description for a device,
and use it in nmcli. For most types, the type description is based on
the class name, but for NMDeviceGeneric, it comes from the
:type-description property.
Add NMDeviceGeneric, to provide generic support for unknown device
types, and create NMDeviceGenerics for those devices that NM
previously was ignoring. Allow NMSettingGeneric connections to be
activated on (managed) NMDeviceGenerics.
Allow devices to declare themselves unmanaged-by-default, but tweak
nm-manager and nm-policy to allow activating matching connections on
those devices anyway.
(This ensures that NM keeps its hands completely off the device unless
the user explicitly asks it to do something with it.)
