Taking out the glib event loop from the existing implementation in
ConnMan and ironing out the relative age of it did leave quite a lot to
be desired. It was unfortunately (again) easier to build something anew
bottoms up than to insert the existing code into a new context. I fished
out the accumulated quirks in the current code, though, so all has not
been lost here.

The DHCPv6 part in ConnMan is of much newer date, looking at it makes me
believe more can be reused there.
