The last remaining network device to be updated is
the VPN device, and this patch is the result of this
effort.
The changes were mostly towards cleaning up and
removing unecessary code. By removing the info labels,
many getters were removed as well.
In order to achieve a listbox-like UI, a couple of
UI refactorings.

Since each VPN will be a row in a listbox, we
can't rely on NetVPN:add_to_stack() to handle
the header.
This header must, then, be handled by the panel
itself. For now, we just open the already available
dialog to add connections, when the ideal approach
(to be implemented yet) is to move the contents
of this dialog in a built-in popover.

After introducing the new single-column layout,
we can easily hit the case where there are too
many connections and/or devices and the panel
gets way too tall.
To fix that, wrap all the widgets inside a
scrolled window that only scrolls vertically.

The current Network panel is composed of a single stack and
a treeview to select the currently visible stack page. Each
stack page represents a connection or device.
The new Network panel, however, has none of the concept of
selectable pages. In the new layout, all connections and
devices appear all at once in a more compact and simpler
fashion.
This commit, then, starts moving towards a unified, pageless
panel by adding all the connections and devices to different
stacks. These different stacks are transient to the network
object, and are added at appropriate boxes, giving the panel
a unified layout.
This has some serious implications in the design of the
current code. Most of the code removals were related to the
treeview and different pages handling. No more tree model
madness is present, and the devices are now stored in a
plain simple GPtrArray.
After this patch, NetObject:add_to_stack isn't a good code
design choice anymore. This will be addressed in a future
patch.

The current Network panel class relies on GtkBuilder
when it could use a more modern feature that is the
template class.
By making it a template class, not only the Network
panel is slightly more performant, but it's also
simpler and easier to read.
This commit, then, turns the Network panel into a
template class, and cleans up the code to make it
work.

The Network panel UI file uses deprecated widgets and
has many lines of needless code. This commit just cleans
it up, as a preparation for turning the Network panel
into a template class.

The Network panel uses a GtkNotebook internally to manage
the different setup pages of the network devices. While it
does the job, we now have a modern widget for that: GtkStack.
With GtkStack, managing the pages becomes a lot easier and
we gain almost for free the nice transition between pages,
besides of course being a widget that consumes slightly less
resources.
Besides all these gains, using a GtkStack will allow us to
implement the new Wi-Fi panel in a more cohesive manner,
sharing large portions of code and avoiding copy pasta.
This commit then turns the GtkNotebook into a GtkStack, and
renames and adapts the code to reflect that. Fortunately,
the code got actually simpler with the move.

The list of networks is sorted by connection type. If a user has e.g. a
lot of VPN connections, then the unsorted list is hard to browse.
To fix this, include the title of the connection in the sort order and
ensure the list is kept sorted when a title is changed.

Make it possible for panels to go all the way to the edge of the
shell. This is particularly important for panels that scroll, such
as the new power panel. All other panels are changed to compensate
for the loss of external padding.

A source file with 4k lines of code is not understandable, and the glade file
was becoming quite a challenge for glade.
To add more features we need to split things up just to keep them maintainable.
This is the first patch that just splits out the proxy bits. Other device types
will follow in the next few days.
Keep the active network at the top, and 'Other' at the bottom.
the other access points are sorted by strength now.

When switching between devices, the Options buttons were jumping
up and down. This patch makes them stay put in the lower right corner.
The patch also removes a bunch of glade placeholder gunk from the
ui file.

This is an implementation of network sharing (aka 'Hotspot').
The new 'Use as hotspot' button lets you use a wifi device
as a hotspot for sharing network connections with others.
Currently, the panel generates a ssid based on the hostname,
sets the security to WEP, and generates a random key. These
parameters can be edited afterwards.
It is currently not possible to show how many connections
are using the hotspot. Apart from this, the implementation
is pretty much complete.
