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.

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.
With help from network-manager-applet patches by Jiří Klimeš and
Dan Winship.

NetObjects and CcNetworkPanel aren't widgets, and hold references to
each other. Simplify things by having NetObject hold a pointer to
CcNetworkPanel (and the singletons NMRemoteSettings and NMClient)
instead, and clear their pointers when the original object is unref'ed.

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.
Remove the ID parameter from the model, and move it to the NetDevice object.
Remove the devices GPtrArray and use the mode for everything.
Connect up the changed and deleted signals from NetObject and DTRT in the UI.
