The setting to disable IPv6 did not actually work. Instead, it just
caused NetworkManager to ignore IPv6 entirely. From the libnm
documentation of NM_SETTING_IP6_CONFIG_METHOD_IGNORE: "IPv6 is not
required or is handled by some other mechanism, and NetworkManager
should not configure IPv6 for this connection." It's just the wrong enum
to use here.
I considered adding a new radio button to use the older ignore setting,
but it doesn't make a ton of sense since that setting allows IPv6 to be
configured outside NetworkManager, and what is the point of exposing
graphical configuration for that? So instead, we can have the GUI change
the value from IGNORE to DISABLED if set.
Fixes#593
To delete a manual entry row (IP addresses or routes) the remove_row
function started walking the widget hierarchy at the connection editor
widget. This caused the entire dialog box getting removed. Begin at the
GtkButton instead to actually remove the corresponding line.
Fixes#972.
Make it clearer in two ways:
• Explicitly mention ‘metered data’, as that’s a commonly used phrase.
• Explicitly mention automatic software updates as being disabled on
metered connections, to make the implications of this checkbox a
little clearer.

The list holding the different supported VPN types is currently relying
on its content in order to expand horizontally. This comes out odd
if the list is mostly empty or has no specially wide content, as it is
then centered in the dialog.
Have it fill the available space, and align vertically on top.
Introduce a new IP{4,6} config method to allow sharing the default
network (usually the Internet) through the wired interface.
This is needed because the control-panel is lacking this feature backed
by nm and currently the only way to enable the connection sharing is by
using nm-connection-editor.
This has the side effect of allowing these pages to be shorter - the hidden
widgets forced the visible widgets to have a minimum height. If the old
behaviour is desired then this requires this to be fixed using a better
method.
