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.
* ...
For disconnected/unavailable devices, show the localized
NMDeviceStateReason next to the localized NMDeviceState (and not in
the tooltip). Also, move the code to do this into panel-common rather
to save some duplication.

Use the 'image-button' style class to make symbolic buttons square
(as supported by latest Adwaita), and make sure to use the correct icon
size for all symbolics to avoid fuzzyness.

If you click the sections in the left side treeview, some of the
elements in the right page headers will move a couple of pixels.
Also, since the WPAD warning label was always visible, the alignment of
the controls section in the Proxy page was suboptimal.

goa_warning is meant for goa-daemon, and it does not really add any
value in this case. Switching to g_warning lets us cut down on the
number of symbols that are exported from libgoabackend.

The vlan page (and other virtual devices) use network-simple.ui,
and the off switch in that pages heading was not centered relative
to the rest of the heading, as it is in other pages. This shows
up as the switch jumping up and down as you switch pages.

In bug 689638, the designers only asked for the list icons
to be symbolic, not the big icons in the page headings. The
current code was failing on both ends: virtual devices like
vlan still had non-symbolic icons in the list, and several
pages (e.g mobile and proxy) had symbolic icons in the headings.
