    core: drop deprecated PropertiesChanged D-Bus signal (API BREAK) · 48dce1b6
    Thomas Haller authored
    D-Bus 1.3.1 (2010) introduced the standard "PropertiesChanged" signal
    on "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties". NetworkManager is old, and predates
    this API. From that time, it still had it's own PropertiesChanged signal
    that are emitted together with the standard ones. NetworkManager
    supports the standard PropertiesChanged signal since it switched to
    gdbus library in version 1.2.0 (2016).
    
    These own signals are deprecated for a long time already ([1], 2016), and
    are hopefully not used by anybody anymore. libnm-glib was using them and
    relied on them, but that library is gone. libnm does not use them and neither
    does plasma-nm.
    
    Hopefully no users are left that are affected by this API break.
