Make wifi.backend configurable per device.

Note https://mail.gnome.org/archives/networkmanager-list/2017-December/msg00027.html , where Andrew said:

Would it ever make sense that one device is managed by supplicant and
another by iwd? I think it would.

I'm not sure, multiple real wifi devices in one system is generally a
rare situation and it's hard to tell what is expected from the
software.

Should this rather be %{with iwd}?

fixed. Thanks

Add a variant of nm_device_spec_match_list() that looks up the match
paramters from a platform link instance.

Usually, we have a NMDevice instance that we use for matching.
However, at some places (like inside the device factory's
create_device() method), we might not have a NMDevice instance
to get the match paramters.

Add an alternative form, that gets the match paramters from a platform
link instance.

The code is placed inside src/NetworkManagerUtils.c, because
src/nm-core-utils.c is supposed to be independent of platform.
…device config

... by platform link.

One caveat is that without having a NMDevice instance, matching by
several paramters won't work. Like, matching against the driver would
require us to look it up via ethtool. When having an NMDevice instance,
the driver is cached there, it's unclear we want to call ethtool for
lookup in this case -- though it could be done.

For other options, it's more complicated. Like, the type basically
depends on the NMDevice class. Usually that also works without a
netdev known to kernel (like bluetooth).

The inconsistency that certain matches are not implemented is ugly
indeed. But the effect is as if the spec doesn't match.
This allows to configure the wifi-backend per device, like

  [device-wifi-backend-eth0]
  match-device=interface-name:wlan0
  wifi-backend=iwd
While glibc's printf is forgiving against printing NULL values,
don't do it.

When NM is restarted and a new object-manager is created, ensure that
signal handlers are disconnected from the old one.
