This removes libnm-glib, libnm-glib-vpn, and libnm-util for good.
The it has been replaced with libnm since NetworkManager 1.0, disabled
by default since 1.12 and no up-to-date distributions ship it for years
now.
Removing the libraries allows us to:
* Remove the horrible hacks that were in place to deal with accidental use
of both the new and old library in a single process.
* Relief the translators of maintenance burden of similar yet different
strings.
* Get rid of known bad code without chances of ever getting fixed
(libnm-glib/nm-object.c and libnm-glib/nm-object-cache.c)
* Generally lower the footprint of the releases and our workspace
If there are some really really legacy users; they can just build
libnm-glib and friends from the NetworkManager-1.16 distribution. The
D-Bus API is stable and old libnm-glib will keep working forever.

It's deprecated and has been replaced by libnm for 6 major releases now.
Its use in modern distributions has faded to the point it can probably
be safely removed.
- `make dist` requires --enable-gtk-doc --enable-introspection --with-libnm-glib
- --enable-gtk-doc requires --enable-introspection
- --with-nmcli requires either --enable-introspection or pregenerated
settings-docs.c files from the dist tarball. It does not require
--enable-gtk-doc.
There is a bit of a problem in that --enable-introspection requires
now xsltproc. However, gobject-introspection does itself not depend
on xsltproc. So, more correct might be a special --enable-doc argument,
that combines --enable-introspection --with-xsltproc. Anyway, that
seems to make it more complicated then it already is so just implicitly
(and surprisingly?) require xsltproc with --enable-introspection.

It seems like a poor default for various downstream toolchains. We can't
anticipate the compiler warnings for future compiler versions and older
ones are prone to false positives. Also, older gdbus-codegen is known
to generate code that triggers compiler warnings.
Let's keep it enabled for maintainer builds and distcheck so that we're
sure a tool chain that builds releases without warnings exists.
And change src/main.c to use the local allocation macros. This
results in much cleaner code, as one can see from the diff.
Because libgsystem is designed for nonrecursive make, it fits best in
the current recursive setup if we build . first. This will be a lot
nicer when we switch NM to a nonrecursive setup.
