NetworkManager supports marking a connection as metered, meaning
that connection is e.g. charged by its usage or extremely limited.
When a network is metered, background network usage must cease
and the behavior of the various OS pieces must be adjusted.
This patch adds a switch to set a connection as metered or not.
The property is imediately propagated to NetworkManager.

The implementation of ->validate in the parent class will return TRUE if
there's no implementation in the child class, so no need to implement
those.

We also remove support for WiMAX (now unsupported by NetworkManager),
and InfiniBand (Enterprise feature), and the use of
the deprecated NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_SEC property.

Dan Winship.

Unfortunately, the VPN plugins provide their own .ui files for their
editor pages, so we can't make them look competely GNOME-3-ish. But
the code does try to fix them up a little bit by realigning the
labels.
vpn-helpers.[ch] is nearly identical to network-manager-applet's,
but eventually this code will move into libnm-gtk.

This code is fairly independent of the rest, and we don't want
net-device-wifi.c to become too massive and unmaintainable.
The code in connection-editor/ is fairly similar to
nm-connection-editor, with some simplification because we
currently only edit wireless connections.
The code in wireless-security/ is almost a straight copy
of the same code in nm-connection-editor, with some changes
to the .ui files to make them fit better in the new design.
