core: misc fixes for loopback support

2022-09-05T13:25:38+00:00

1) when a IPv4 address has an empty .peer_address, it means the peer
address is 0.0.0.0. To have the peer unset, we must set .peer_address
= .address.

2) don't add address 127.0.0.1/8 to the prune list. This prevents the
deletion of the address on reactivation.

3) add "src 127.0.0.1" to the local route

preserve the loopback route

device: allow autoconnect on external

2022-09-01T13:00:07+00:00

In some scenarios, autoconnect should not be blocked if the device is
activated on the external connection (e.g. autoconnect on the loopback
device).

Adding the `allow_autoconnect_on_external` flag to support such
behavior.

support loopback interface

2022-09-01T13:00:07+00:00

Support managing the loopback interface through NM as the users want to
set the proper mtu for loopback interface when forwarding the packets.
Additionally, the IP addresses, DNS, route and routing rules are also
allowed to configure for the loopback connection profiles.
