platform: use also statvfs() to check for udevd
Check whether or not there is a running udevd by using statvfs() on
"/sys" and use access() as a fallback. This is in line with what is
done by systemd [1] and helps in case NM is not really running in a
container but has been confined by a MAC so it does not have full
access to sysfs (access() returns EACCES). Fixes LP:#1712918,
LP:#1893184.

core/pppd-plugin: wait to recover port settings before notifying death
pppd restores the previous settings for the serial port it uses right
before exiting. It is especially important to do so because otherwise
ModemManager is not able to recover the port as it can receive a hangup
event from the port due to CLOCAL not being restored. However, there is
currently a race condition that produces this issue. This is because
when PHASE_DEAD is notified, pppd still has not restored the port
settings - it does that a bit later, in the die() function.
This patch delays notifying PHASE_DEAD until when the exitnotify() hook
is called by pppd: when this happens the port settings have already been
restored.
There were previously efforts to fix this in commit fe090c34b724, so
PHASE_DEAD was used instead of PHASE_DISCONNECT to notify MM that the
port was disconnected, but that still early to ensure that the port
settings are restored.
The MM traces seen when the bug is triggered are:
ModemManager[2158]: <warn> (ttyACM1): could not re-acquire serial port lock: (5) Input/output error
ModemManager[2158]: <warn> Couldn't load Operator Code: 'Cannot run sequence: 'Could not open serial device ttyACM1: it has been forced close'
core: ignore IPv6 multicast in connection comparison
The default multicast route for IPv6 is set by default in some devices.
This makes comparisons between connections that should be the same to
fail, so they are not merged and unneeded connections appear in the
system. This commit make sure this does not happen. The route is
{ dest = "ff00::", prefix = 8 }. Fixes LP: #1811347.
core: ignore host-routes routes when matching generated connection
When we generate the connection in nm_device_generate_connection(), we
add all routes that have rt_source (roundtrip(NM_IP_CONFIG_SOURCE_USER)).
Especially since commit e470e1392242a088573c4fc317b7b5ffaca4df19, this
includes automatically added host-routes to the gateway, added by
ip4_config_merge_and_apply().
Later, during nm_utils_match_connection() this route most not prevent
matching. Either nm_device_generate_connection() should not add it, or
nm_utils_match_connection() should ignore it.
I think adjusting the matching is better, because ip-configs are used
for several things, including exposing routes on D-Bus. We don't want
to hide this route on D-Bus.
