When acquiring an IP address, dhcpcd seems to think that the interface
is down or does not work properly for some reason. It will
subsequentially decide to exit which is not what we want here.
Therefore this patch tells dhcpcd to ignore the link state and keep
happily running.

This could potentially create problems when we abuse these functions to
launch the DHCP client on IPTV interfaces. This would have to be tested
and confirmed or potentially we would need some more changes to keep
supporting that use-case, too.

QMI is a proprietary interface from Qualcomm which are absolute pioneers
when it comes to interfacing with modems. I don't think there would be
any way to make this any more complicated and bloated.
So, bascially we will put the modem into a raw IP mode which changes the
interface into Point-to-Point mode.
We then configure the provider settings using qmicli. After that, the
modem will try to connect to the provider and obtain an IP address.
We will then start a DHCP client which does not do any DHCP-ing because
implementing that would be too complicated. Instead we do something even
*more* complicated where we would launch a custom script which asks the
modem for the allocated IP address and will configure it into the
device. The DHCP client then reads that IP address from the device and
pretends it came up with it by itself. Such an easy way to do this.

Jonatan Schlag reported that the command line options of 'vnstat' had changed
"...and seemed to be broken a long time".
=> https://bugzilla.ipfire.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12831#c0
Several command line switches used in networking initscripts were obviously removed.
Affected commands in '.../networking/any' and '.../networking/red'):
...
/usr/bin/vnstat -u -i ${DEVICE} -r --enable --force > /dev/null 2>&1
...
/usr/bin/vnstat -u -i ${DEVICE} -r --disable > /dev/null 2>&1
...
and
...
/usr/bin/vnstat -u -i ppp0 -r --disable > /dev/null 2>&1
...
Adolf Belka tested this, "looked through the changelogs" and found - besides that
the switch '--enable' had been removed "in version 2.0 in 2018" - that '--enable', '--update'
and '--reset' switches are either not needed or not supported anymore.
"The old man page indicates that none of those options are used when the vnstat daemon
is running."
Since we only start and run 'vnstatd' in IPFire it was decided to remove these commands.

The DHCP server can instruct clients to configure a certain MTU.
This used to be done by setting the MTU of the interface. However,
dhcpcd has changed this behaviour using routes to.
We used to have a modified version of the old mechanism which no longer
works well with the new system and is therefore to be dropped.
This is the first commit in the series implementing the new behaviour
and telling dhcpcd to use the configured MTU.

Bumping across one of our scripts with very long trailing whitespaces, I
thought it might be a good idea to clean these up. Doing so, some
missing or inconsistent licence headers were fixed.
There is no need in shipping all these files en bloc, as their
functionality won't change.

pppd 2.4.9 supports IPv6 and asks for an IPv6 configuration by default.
Setting the received prefix in the kernel will never work, however, as
the rest of IPFire 2.x does not support IPv6.
pppd notices the ISP about this, and at least Otenet (GR) and British
Telecom (several countries) decide to close a dial-up connection then.
German DTAG seems to ignore such errors silently.
This patch adds an option to the pppd call to prevent asking for an
IPv6 configuration, hence avoiding this errors.
To apply this patch, it is necessary to ship ppp 2.4.9 again. Since I
have no access to a testing machine behind an ISP supporting IPv6, this
patch unfortunately is untested.

This variable is no longer being used and was only used to
assign IP addresses to the individual interfaces.
However, the kernel knows best which IP address to select
as broadcast address for each network. Therefore we depend
on the kernel which allows us to support RFC3021.

The safe search code relied on working DNS resolution, but
was executed before unbound was even started and no network
was brought up.
That resulted in no records being created and nothing being
filtered.
This will now set/reset safe search when the system connects
to the Internet.
