DocBook is not my favorite thing in the world, but it's
<lots-of-emphasis>far</lots-of-emphasis> saner than troff. Some style
parts cribbed from systemd.
This is preparatory work for actually improving the content of the
man pages.
Make the main/dns config key be a single value rather than a list of
plugins. Since there is currently only one valid value for it
("dnsmasq"), this is backward-compatible.
In the future, it will be possible to specify custom DNS-configuring
scripts here, which is a more flexible way of handling complicated
behavior than trying to create chainable internal plugins.
Add an ignore-carrier option to NetworkManager.conf, for specifying
devices where carrier state should be ignored for purposes of
activating/deactivating connections.
Add a new configuration directory ($nmconfdir/conf.d by default,
overridable via the --config-dir command-line option) that can contain
".conf" files that will be parsed in asciibetical order to override
the main NetworkManager.conf file.
In addition to simple overrides, the conf files also support appending
to the value of a previously-set list-valued key, by doing, eg,
"plugins+=foo"

There is no reason to configure the connectivity-check options from
the command line rather than from the config file. Keep the options,
for backward-compatibility, but remove them from the man page and hide
them from --help.
In that mode, we shouldn't attempt to generate any manpages. While
we're here, rewrite this file (using nonrecursive style) so we don't
install non-generated ones either.

It contains logging domains that are active by default. It allows users
to set default domains back easily (after they changed them).
And fix formatting of "} else if".
This is similar to clicking a Wi-Fi network's SSID in a GUI applet.
The command does this:
- creates new connection (fills the user data specified via options, the
connection is then completed with default parameters by NM)
- and then activates the connection on a Wi-Fi device.
WPA-Enterprise is not supported as it requires a plethora of parameters and
they can't be obtained automatically.
Also, the created connection uses 'auto' IP method, which means that if the
Wi-Fi network doesn't support DHCP, the connection will albeit be created,
however the activation will fail (IP configuration won't be available).
nm_access_point_get_hw_address() is deprecated in 0.9.
Also change 'hwaddr' parameter for 'nmcli dev wifi list' to 'bssid'. 'hwaddr'
still works but is deprecated and not documented any more.
