We support the "NetworkManager.conf" sections '[connection]' and
'[connection.\+]' (with arbitrary suffix).
Fix the order of how we evaluate these section.
Note that the literal '[connection]' section is always evaluated lastly
after any other '[connection.\+]' section.
Within one file, we want to evaluate the sections in top-to-bottom
order. But accross multiple files, we want to order them
later-files-first. That gives a reasonable behavior if the user
looks at one file, and also if he wants to overwrite configuration
via configuration snippets like "conf.d/99-last.conf".
Note that if a later file extends/overwrites a section defined in an
earlier file, the section is still considered with lower priority
This is intentional, because the user ~extends~ a lower priority
section. If he wants to add a higher priority section, he should
choose a new suffix.

We ought to set an error if we're returning NULL from
connection_from_file_full(). Also, printing out a warning ourselves makes no
sense -- the caller communicates this if we signal an error by returning NULL.
Use the editor to obtain a list of possible properties for a type of
connection. Let 'nmcli c modify' completion reuse it as well, to avoid code
duplication.
The initsystem should stop nm-dispatcher before stopping D-Bus
service. However, on some systems that is not implemented, so
nm-dispatcher should not exit with a failure message when the
system bus disappears.
Instead just assume that D-Bus service was stopped during shutdown
and exit gracefully.

When adding an IPv4 address, kernel will also add a device-route.
We don't want that route because it has the wrong metric. Instead,
we add our own route (with a different metric) and remove the
kernel-added one.
This could be avoided if kernel would support an IPv4 address flag
IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE like it does for IPv6 (see related bug rh#1221311).
One important thing is, that we want don't want to manage the
device-route on assumed devices. Note that this is correct behavior
if "assumed" means "do-not-touch".
If "assumed" means "seamlessly-takeover", then this is wrong.
Imagine we get a new DHCP address. In this case, we would not manage
the device-route on the assumed device. This cannot be fixed without
splitting unmanaged/assumed with related bug bgo 746440.
This is no regression as we would also not manage device-routes
for assumed devices previously.
We also don't want to remove the device-route if the user added
it externally. Note that here we behave wrongly too, because we
don't record externally added kernel routes in update_ip_config().
This still needs fixing.
Let IPv4 device-routes also be managed by NMRouteManager. NMRouteManager
has a list of all routes and can properly add, remove, and restore
the device route as needed.
One problem is, that the device-route does not get added immediately
with the address. It only appears some time later. This is solved
by NMRouteManager watching platform and if a matchin device-route shows up
within a short time after configuring addresses, remove it.
If the route appears after the short timeout, assume they were added for
other reasons (e.g. by the user) and don't remove them.

When checking whether an address from platform should be deleted, we
compare the address with our list of @known_addresses.
For that we must also check for expired lifetimes, because
@known_addresses might contain expired addresses.
Soon we will subscribe to the platform instance for change signals.
If a singleton instance uses another singleton instance, it should
keep a reference to it, especially if it subscribes to a signal
(that will be disconnected on dispose()).
The previous version causes an unsigned integer underflow. That
is not wrong, but still change it.
Also use g_array_remove_index_fast() because the list of routes
is unsorted anyway.
build_rtnl_addr() has two parameters "lifetime" and "preferred". Both
count from *now*.
Fix nmp_object_to_nl() to properly set these timestamps. This bug had
not real consequences, because the only place where we use
nmp_object_to_nl() the arguments are 0.
When ping is launched to check the connectivity to the gateway it may
return earlier than the given timeout in case of error. When this
happens we need to respawn it until the timeout is reached.
While at it, increase maximum timeout value to 600 seconds.

When the platform link gets removed outside of NetworkManager, we would
unmanage the device first. By checking the device state reason
NM_DEVICE_STATE_REASON_REMOVED, we would then not deconfigure the
interface, as it is already gone.
This was not correct because we must at least stop the dhcp client.
Otherwise the dhclient process keeps running. That meant, if the device
reappeared later, we would start dhclient again. Then we would find the
PID of the still running instance in the pidfile and kill it only than.
Fix it by replacing the 'deconfigure' boolean by a tri-state
'cleanup_type'.
We kill the process based on the PID from the pidfile. This can be
our own child process so we must use nm_utils_kill_child_sync()
instead of nm_utils_kill_process_sync().
kill(pid,sig) can return success for zombie processes. This
caused nm_utils_kill_process_sync() to hang indefinitely.
Fix it by also checking the process state.
ip[46]_config_merge_and_apply() do assume the settings that are merged later in
override the previously set ones and not the other way around. Otherwise e.g. a
gateway address from DHCP could override what's set in the connection.
