NMSettingConnection was making sure that bond slaves didn't have an IP
configuration, but it should have been making that check for bridge
and team slaves too.
Several settings types' verify() functions need to find a particular
setting from the all_settings list that NMConnection passes them. Add
a convenience function for this.
To better handle broken hardware, like switches which don't pass
traffic for a few seconds after a carrier has been negotiated,
add a timeout to control how long to wait for successful pings
of the gateway before giving up and proceeding with IP config.
Default is 0, which means don't ping the gateway, just assume
the NIC/switch aren't lying and can pass traffic immediately.
Make setting type registration less icky; instead of having the
connection register all the settings, have the settings themselves
register that information at library load time. Putting this sort
of thing in G_DEFINE_TYPE_WITH_CODE is apparently more standard
than the home-rolled stuff we had before. Also document the
priority stuff so when adding new settings, people know what
priority to use.

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.
Adds a MASTER= directive to ifcfg-rh allowing a connection to define
itself as bonding slave.
Adds a connection property "master" which contains the in-kernel device
name or UUID of the master connection.
Adds a connection property "slave-type" which defines the type of slave
this connection represents. Currently this is only set by bonding but
eventually this will be used by VLAN and bridging.
Enforces that no bonding slave connection has any IPv4 or IPv6
configuration set.
Changes make_ip4_setting() to take a universal flag indicating whether
to allow disabling ip4 config or not and use it for both, ip6 and
bonding special case.

It turns out we need a way to ignore transient (agent-owned or unsaved)
secrets during connection comparison. For example, if the user is
connecting to a network where the password is not saved, other
changes could trigger a writeout of that connection to disk when
connecting, which would the connection back in due to inotify, and the
re-read connection would then no longer be recognized as the same as
the in-memory connection due to the transient secret which obviously
wasn't read in from disk.
Adding these compare flags allows the code to not bother writing the
connection out to disk when the only difference between the on-disk
and in-memory connections are secrets that shouldn't get written to
disk anyway.
Groups may come later, but they are also quite a bit more complicated
because getting the groups a user is in may require network access
if that user is backed by LDAP. And it gets worse because you have
no idea that the glibc calls like getgrouplist(3) are backed by
the network and may take an arbitrary amount of time to complete.
Punt that.
This caused the 'autoconnect' property of NMSettingConnection to not
get updated in some cases (as when a system setting plugin noticed a
change to autoconnect=true and emitted the Updated signal, which wouldn't
contain the new value). Add a testcase for setting default values too.

Add connection UUIDs, since connection names can be changed, and since
old-style connection IDs could change over the life of the connection. The
UUID should be assigned at connection creation time, be stable for a given
connection, and should be unique among all connections for a given settings
service.

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.
