* nmcli: fix setting property aliases to empty value to reset the
default value.

API. They are replaced by standard PropertiesChanged signal on the

* firewall: add nftables firewall backend for configuring IPv4 NAT with shared
mode.
* ethtool: add support for pause settings.
-* wifi/iwd: mirror NetworkManager connection profiles to iwd config files.
-* Major restructuring of the source code.
-* vala: fix wrongly generated vapi for WireGuard API (this is an API break
- if you were using this API).
* Support "prohibit"/"blackhole"/"unreachable" type routing rules.

configuration (qdiscs and filters) when activating a connection.
