Move it to shared as it's useful for clients as well.
Move and rename nm_dbus_manager_new_auth_subject_from_context() and
nm_dbus_manager_new_auth_subject_from_message() in nm-dbus-manager.c
as they're needed there.
The method field is set from (only) via a GObject property setter,
which sets a value of type int. As we afterwards validate that the
value is in a valid range, we should use a suitable type to hold
the value to begin with. Of course, in almost all cases is the
underlying type of the enum already int.
G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT cause to explicitly initialize the property during
object construction. This is an unnecessary overhead that we can easily
avoid.
The overhead is because G_PARAM_CONSTRUCT parameters are always set with
g_object_set() before calling constructed(). Even if they are not specified
during g_object_new(), in which case it calls set with the property's default
value. This also requires g_object_new() to iterate all properties to
find and sort the construct properties.
NMSetting are supposed to be simple classes. They don't need to have
their properties initialized before object construction completes.
Especially if the default values are NULL or zero, in which case there
is nothing to do. If the default value is not NULL or zero, we need
to initialize the field instead in the nm_setting*_init() function.
If we know the address used previously, also tell the client to start
from the init-reboot phase, so that it will start with a DHCP request
instead of a discover.
Instead of terminating the program when the dispatch function returns
an invalid return code, log an error message and convert the error
code to a valid, generic one.

After t1, the client tries to renew the lease by contacting via the
udp socket the server specified in the server-id option. If this
fails, after t2 it tries to contact any server using broadcast. For
this to work, the packet socket must be used.
Currently the client always starts from the INIT state (i.e. sending a
discover message). If a requested-ip was specified by the caller, it
is added as an option in the discover.
It was reported that some DHCP servers don't respond to discover
messages with the requested-ip option set [1][2].
The RFC allows to skip the discover by entering the INIT-REBOOT state
and starting directly with a broadcast request message containing the
requested IP address. Implement that.

The following used functions:
`compiler.has_link_argument`,
`link_whole arg in declare_dependency`,
`compiler.has_multi_link_argument`
are present only from meson 0.46.
We call svFindFirstNumberedKey() to check whether we have any NETMASK
set. Since commit 9085c5c3a9 ('ifcfg-rh: rename
svFindFirstKeyWithPrefix() to svFindFirstNumberedKey() for finding
NETMASK') that function would no longer find the "NETMASK" without
number.
Fix that, by letting nms_ifcfg_rh_utils_is_numbered_tag() return TRUE
for the tag itself. This also makes more sense, because it matches our
common understanding what numbered tags are.
Adjust the other callers that don't want this behavior to explicitly
check.

Previously, setting or getting a variable required to scan all lines.
Note that frequently we would look up variables that didn't actually
exist, which we could only determine after searching the entire list.
Also, since we needed to handle having the same variable specified
multiple times (where the last occurrence wins), we always had to search
all keys and couldn't stop when finding the first key. Well, technically
we could have searched in reverse order for the getter, but that wasn't
done. For the setter we wanted to delete all but the last occurrences,
so to find them, we really had to search them all.
We want to support profiles with hundreds or thousands of addresses and routes.
This does not scale well.
Add an hash table to find the variables in constant time.

So, not much difference. But this is not surprising, because test-ifcfg-rh loads and
writes predominantly ifcfg files with few variables. The difference should be visible
when having large files.
svFindFirstKeyWithPrefix() only had one caller: to find whether there are
any NETMASK variables set. NETMASK is a numbered variable, so we should only
find variables that indeed follow the pattern. Since there was only
one caller, rename and repurpose the function.
When we write a connection profile to ifcfg-rh file, we first load the
possibly existing file and modify it. The purpose is to preserve
variables that we don't know about, keep comments and preserve the order
of the variables.
Note that the writer sets a bunch of variables according to the
profile's setting. At various places the writer would explicitly
clear variables with svUnsetValue(). However, that was problematic:
- we would not unset all variables that we care about. We really should
not leave previous variables if they make no sense anymore for the
profile. The only thing we want to preserve are entirely unknown keys
and comments. Note that when the writer omits to clear an unset variable,
it usually does so assuming that the reader would anyway ignore the
key, become some other key renders it irrelevant. Given the complexity
of the reader and writer, that is often not the case and hard to ensure.
We might have simply forgotten a svUnsetValue(), which was an easy
to make mistake and hard to find (because you'd have to test with
a pre-existing profile that happens to contain that key, which leaves
countless combinations for testing.
That means, a profile written by the writter might be interpreted
differently by the reader depending on which pre-existing keys were set.
- it was cumbersome to explicitly call svUnsetValue().
Note that for numbered tags in particular we would iterate the keys
trying to unset them. For example for addresses (like "IPADDR5") we
would iterate over the first 256 IPADDR keys, trying to unset them.
That is horrible. For one, it doesn't cover the case where there might
be more than 256 addresses. Also, it adds a significant overhead every
time.
While writing a ifcfg file currently is O(n^2) because setting one key
is O(l), with l being the number of keys/lines. So, if you set n keys
in a file with l lines, you get O(n*l). Which is basically O(n^2),
because the number of lines and the number of keys to set usually
corresponds.
So when setting 256 times IPADDR, the overall complexity was still
O(n^2 + 256 * n) and didn't change. However, the 256 factor here can
be very significant.
We should not explicitly unset variables, we should always unset all
known variables that we don't explicitly set.
The svUnsetValue() calls are still there. They will be dropped next.
Helper function to remove all variables that are still dirty (not
visited) and well-known.
Also add svWriteFileWithoutDirtyWellknown() to clear the lines
before persisting to disk.
This adds a lot of meta-data about how we handle ifcfg-rh.
We will use this to prune/delete all variables that are not explicitly
set (dirty) but also well-known.
We could now easily emit a warning when an ifcfg-rh file contains
unused key.
We also could add more meta-data for each key. For example, we write
different files (ifcfg- and keys- files). We could add flags to indicate
that variables are valid in certain files. Currently that's not done.
Also, for simple properties we could associate the key with the
NMSetting property, and treat does generically, like keyfile does.
Anyway, there are potentials. For now, we will use this to clear dirty
variables.
Previously, IS_NUMBERED_TAG() could only be called with a C literal.
Add is_numbered_tag() which can be called with any C string.
Also, IS_NUMBERED_TAG_PARSE() and IS_NUMBERED_TAG() didn't do exactly
the same. I think they should. The only difference was if the number
was larger than 2^63-1. Now IS_NUMBERED_TAG() starts ignoring such
keys, which is fine.
By default, all lines are now marked as dirty. Whenever we modify/set
a line, it becomes non-dirty. That will be used later to prune lines
that are dirty, that is, not yet visited.
I hesitated to add this to libnm, because it's hardly used.
However, we already fetch the property during GetManagedObjects(),
we we should make it accessible, instead of requiring the user to
make another D-Bus call.
Otherwise, this function cannot really be used via generated bindings.
Also, it's the only way to actually retrieve the set vlan-ids, without
it, you wouldn't know which ones are set.

After a user entered a secret it would get stored in the readline
history data structure (in plain text) and eventually get leaked.
This commit instructs readline to not store any secret in its
history and fixes a non-related memory leak.
