Marcus Hoffmann 24827ae398 package/network-manager: bump to 1.56.0
Disable building of man pages, which is now a separate option from
building html docs[1].

Add conditional support for parsing the NVMe Boot Firmware Table NBFT)
depending on whether libnvme is available.

Changes [2]:

=============================================
NetworkManager-1.56
Overview of changes since NetworkManager-1.54
=============================================
* Unify the versioning to use everywhere the scheme with the -rcX or -dev
  suffixes when appropriate. This affects, for example, the URL and filename
  of the release tarball and the version reported by nmcli and the daemon.
  As an exception, the C API will continue to use the 90+ scheme for RC versions.
* nmcli now supports viewing and managing WireGuard peers.
* Support reapplying the "sriov.vfs" property as long as
  "sriov.total-vfs" is not changed.
* Support reapplying "bond-port.vlans".
* Accept hostnames longer than 64 characters from DNS lookup.
* Make that global-dns configuration overwrites DNS searches and
  options from connections, instead of merging all together.
* Add support for a new rd.net.dhcp.client-id option in
  nm-initrd-generator.
* Add gsm device-uid setting to restrict the devices the connection applies to.
* Support configuring the HSR protocol version via the
  "hsr.protocol-version" property.
* Fix a bug that makes broadband connections auto-connect getting
  blocked if the connection tries to reconnect when modem status is
  "disconnecting" / "disconnected".
* Treat modem connection not having an operator code available
  as a recoverable error.
* Add support for configuring systemd-resolved's DNSSEC option
  per-connection via the "connection.dnssec" connection property.
* Support configuring the HSR interlink port via the
  "hsr.interlink" property.
* Fix some connection properties not being applied to vpn connections
  (connection.mdns, connection.llmnr, connection.dns-over-tls,
   connection.mptcp-flags, ipv6.ip6-privacy)
* Update n-acd to always compile with eBPF enabled, as support
  for eBPF is now detected at run time.
* Add new MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint type, and set it by default alongside
  the 'subflow' one.
* For private connections (the ones that specify a user in the
  "connection.permissions" property), verify that the user can access
  the 802.1X certificates and keys set in the connection.
* Introduce a libnm function that can be used by VPN plugins to check
  user permissions on certificate and keys.

=============================================
NetworkManager-1.54
Overview of changes since NetworkManager-1.52
=============================================
* Add support for configuring per-device IPv4 forwarding via the
  "ipv4.forwarding" connection property.
* Add a new "prefix-delegation" setting containing a "subnet-id"
  property that specifies the subnet to choose on the downstream
  interface when using IPv6 prefix delegation.
* Support OCI baremetal in nm-cloud-setup
* When activating a WireGuard connection to an IPv6 endpoint, now
  NetworkManager creates firewall rules to ensure that the incoming
  packets are not dropped by kernel reverse path filtering.
* Add support for configuring the loopback interface in nmtui.
* Most of the properties of ovs-bridge and ovs-port connections can
  now be reapplied at runtime without bringing the connection down.
* Add a new "sriov.preserve-on-down" property that controls whether
  NetworkManager preserves the SR-IOV parameters set on the device
  when the connection is deactivated, or whether it resets them to
  their default value.
* Introduce a new "ovs-dpdk.lsc-interrupt" property to configure the
  Link State Change (LSC) detection mode for OVS DPDK interfaces.
* The initrd-generator now can parse the NVMe Boot Firmware Table
  (NBFT) to configure networking during early boot.
* Add systemd services to provide networking in the initrd.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at https://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
