1. all: goodbye libnm-glib …

   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.
