Lubomir Rintel 972e0d2803 all: rename the introspection data to use the interface paths in names
This makes it easier to install the files with proper names.
Also, it makes the makefile rules slightly simpler.

Lastly, the documentation is now generated into docs/api, which makes it
possible to get rid of the awkward relative file names in docbook.

<title>Network Configuration Setting Specification</title>
<para>
This part documents the properties and value types of each "Setting"
object that composes the basic unit of NetworkManager configuration,
the "Connection". Each Connection object is simply a dictionary mapping
setting names (like "802-3-ethernet" or "bluetooth") to a dictionary of
key/value pairs that represents each itself.

documentation is not available.)

<section id="secrets-flags">
<title>Secret flag types</title>
<para>
Each secret property in a setting has an associated "flags" property
that describes how to handle that secret. The "flags" property is a
bitfield that contains zero or more of the following values logically
OR-ed together.
</para>
<para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<literal>0x0 (none)</literal> - the system is responsible for providing
and storing this secret.
</listitem>
<listitem>
<literal>0x1 (agent-owned)</literal> - a user-session secret agent
is responsible for providing and storing this secret; when it is
required, agents will be asked to provide it.
</listitem>
<listitem>
<literal>0x2 (not-saved)</literal> - this secret should not be saved
but should be requested from the user each time it is required. This
flag should be used for One-Time-Pad secrets, PIN codes from
hardware tokens, or if the user simply does not want to save the
secret.
</listitem>
<listitem>
<literal>0x4 (not-required)</literal> - in some situations it cannot
be automatically determined that a secret is required or not. This
flag hints that the secret is not required and should not be
requested from the user.
