We no longer add these. If you use Emacs, configure it yourself.

Also, due to our "smart-tab" usage the editor anyway does a subpar
job handling our tabs. However, on the upside every user can choose
whatever tab-width he/she prefers. If "smart-tabs" are used properly
(like we do), every tab-width will work.

No manual changes, just ran commands:

    F=($(git grep -l -e '-\*-'))
    sed '1 { /\/\* *-\*-  *[mM]ode.*\*\/$/d }'     -i "${F[@]}"
    sed '1,4 { /^\(#\|--\|dnl\) *-\*- [mM]ode/d }' -i "${F[@]}"

Check remaining lines with:

    git grep -e '-\*-'

The ultimate purpose of this is to cleanup our files and eventually use
SPDX license identifiers. For that, first get rid of the boilerplate lines.

No flags yet implemented.

Note that the reason tracking starts as soon as the object exists (which
is immediately after GDBusObject is created), not when the asynchronous
NMObject initialization finishes. That is so that we the reason changes
in between are not lost.

The vpn-connection should probably be doing the same.

In practice, this should only matter when there are multiple
header files with the same name. That is something we try
to avoid already, by giving headers a distinct name.

When building NetworkManager itself, we clearly want to use
double-quotes for including our own headers.
But we also want to do that in our public headers. For example:

  ./a.c
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <nm-1.h>
    void main() {
        printf ("INCLUDED %s/nm-2.h\n", SYMB);
    }

  ./1/nm-1.h
    #include <nm-2.h>

  ./1/nm-2.h
    #define SYMB "1"

  ./2/nm-2.h
    #define SYMB "2"

$ cc -I./2 -I./1 ./a.c
$ ./a.out
INCLUDED 2/nm-2.h

Exceptions to this are
  - headers in "shared/nm-utils" that include <NetworkManager.h>. These
    headers are copied into projects and hence used like headers owned by
    those projects.
  - examples/C

This is required to add objects in the "Types and Values" section and
in the API index. Later, we may want to add useful content in those
empty comments.

As with NMIP4Config and NMIP6Config, merge the two DHCP config classes
into one in the public API.

Create NMIPConfig as the parent of NMIP4Config and NMIP6Config, and
remove the two subclasses from the public API; while it's convenient
to still have both internally, they are now identical to the outside
world.

NMActiveConnection:connection was an object path rather than an
NMRemoteConnection because in the past the NMObject property system
wasn't capable of handling NMRemoteConnection-valued properties.
NMActiveConnection:master was an object path rather than an NMDevice
entirely by accident. Fix both.

NMActiveConnection:specific-object can't currently be converted to an
object, because we don't know ahead of time what object type it is,
and NMObject can't deal with that. Instead, we rename it to
:specific-object-path (and likewise for its get function), both to
emphasize that it doesn't behave like other properties, and to leave
the old name open for an actual object-valued property later on.

Add nm-types.h defining all the type structs, to avoid future include
loops. Clean up the includes in all of the installed headers.
