Our CI integration (not gitlab-ci) would only trigger jobs for merge
requests that originate from NetworkManager/NetworkManager project.
That's because we don't want to (trivially) run untrusted code in our
infrastructure.

Also, it's slightly more convenient for developers to have everything
in one repository. The users are encouraged to ignore branches they
don't care about.

Thanks. Or use the NetworkManager/ModemManager fork -- at least, that's
why it exists.


btw, I also disabled the ability to open issues/merge-requests against
NetworkManager/ModemManager.

If anybody feels stronlgy, we can also delete the fork.
