This was always the intention of the design; we just
didn't get around to it. It is becoming more important now
that the shell system status does not show wired profiles
anymore.

Calling nm_client_deactivate_connection() stops a connection and set
it back to auto-activation. In the case of ethernet, that means the
ipconfig scripts start again and the ethernet device becomes 'on'
again, even though the user clicked 'off' in the control center panel.

These types appear with the same name in libnm-gtk, but they're
not shared because they come from different code, so they
need namespacing.
This prevents a crash that happens if you open a wifi property
dialog and then click "Connect to hidden network"

The connection editor window is shown before all of its pages are
initialized, causing it to jump when it gets its final size. Avoid
that by not showing it before it is ready.

Bridges, bonds and vlans should be deletable, like they are
in nm-connection-editor. The delete button was already sensitive
for these devices, but it didn't do anything. This commit hooks
up the necessary functionality.

Add a class method to CcPanel to get a GOptionGroup which will be added
to the main commandline parser. This gives panels the chance to have
commandline "--flags" in addition to the already available parameters.
This changes changes the way parameters are passed to panels: the first
entry in the GVariant array is always the a{sv} dictionary of
commandline flags, followed by the remaining free-form arguments.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=696054
By using a GVariant of type "av" we can potentially pass more structured
data to panels, which will become relevant with the ability to invoke
them by GAction-based DBus-activation introduced in the following patch.

Disable the type-ahead search in the connection editor, the
number of items, and their positional stability means that
a search feature isn't warranted.
As a precaution, also check the success of
gtk_tree_selection_get_selected() to avoid crashes.

There probably won't be a stable ModemManager 0.7 release before GNOME
3.8, so make support for it optional
(Mostly based on Aleksander's original patch.)

Very few of the panel comments provide information that is very
useful. Update them to supplement the panel descriptions - this
will make the search results more helpful.

When this got rewritten to be different from nm-connection-editor's,
some of the ce_page_changed() calls accidentally got dropped, so
certain changes on these pages would not cause the "Apply" button to
become sensitive.

If the wireless device doesn't support either of the two possible
hotspot modes, disable the button. Also, add a tooltip to the button
when it's disabled, explaining why ("device does not support" or
"system policy prohibits").

When the network doesn't provide a valid text string with the current operator
name, try to guess it using either the 3GPP MCCMNC pair or with the CDMA SID.
Guessing is based on the Mobile Providers Database for which there is an API in
libnm-gtk (>= 0.9.7.995).
The same logic to guess operator name is used in gnome-shell.
The control-center will automatically detect whether the modems exposed by
NetworkManager are from the old or the new interface, and if they are from the
new one it will use the libmm-glib support to gather the required information
from them.
The new ModemManager1 interfaces are exposed by ModemManager >= 0.7; and provide
lots of new functionalities, like:
* Improved connection bearer handling (e.g. multiple bearers at the same time)
* Location support (GPS, LAC/CI, CDMA BS...)
* Full SMS support through the new 'Messaging' interface.
* ...
