libnm-glib-vpn: add support for interactive secrets requests
There are three additions to the D-Bus interface for VPN plugins as part of this patch: 1) ConnectInteractive(): called by NM instead of Connect() to let the plugin know that it can request additional secrets during the connection process using SecretsRequired 2) SecretsRequired: a new signal emitted by the plugin to indicate to NetworkManager that additional secrets are required to connect; can only be called if NetworkManager initiated the connection by calling the ConnectInteractive() method 3) NewSecrets(): a new method of the plugin that NetworkManager calls when new secrets requested by the SecretsRequired signal have been retrieved from secret agents We need new methods because agents need to be aware of the hints that the VPN plugins may send with the SecretsRequired signal (detailing the specific secrets that are required) and at this time, not all agents support passing those hints to the VPN plugin authentication dialogs.
