cloud-setup: add tool for automatic IP configuration in cloud
This is a tool for automatically configuring networking in a cloud environment. Currently it only supports IPv4 on EC2, but it's intended for extending to other cloud providers (Azure). See [1] and [2] for how to configure secondary IP addresses on EC2. This is what the tool currently aims to do (but in the future it might do more). [1] https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/ec2-ubuntu-secondary-network-interface/ It is inspired by SuSE's cloud-netconfig ([1], [2]) and ec2-net-utils package on Amazon Linux ([3], [4]). [1] https://www.suse.com/c/multi-nic-cloud-netconfig-ec2-azure/ [2] https://github.com/SUSE-Enceladus/cloud-netconfig [3] https://github.com/aws/ec2-net-utils [4] https://github.com/lorengordon/ec2-net-utils.git It is also intended to work without configuration. The main point is that you boot an image with NetworkManager and nm-cloud-setup enabled, and it just works.

* libnm: heavily internal rework NMClient. This slims down libnm and makes the
implementation more efficient. NMClient should work now well with a separate
GMainContext.
+* nm-cloud-setup: add new tool for automatically configuring NetworkManager
