    connectivity: fix crash when removing easy-handle from curl callback · 3dbd2644
    Thomas Haller authored
    libcurl does not allow removing easy-handles from within a curl
    callback.
    
    That was already partly avoided for one handle alone. That is, when
    a handle completed inside a libcurl callback, it would only invoke the
    callback, but not yet delete it. However, that is not enough, because
    from within a callback another handle can be cancelled, leading to
    the removal of (the other) handle and a crash:

    Fix that, by never invoking any callbacks when we are inside a libcurl
    callback. Instead, the handle is marked for completion and queued. Later,
    we complete all queue handles separately.
    
    While at it, drop the @Error argument from NMConnectivityCheckCallback.
    It was only used to signal cancellation. Let's instead signal that via
    status NM_CONNECTIVITY_CANCELLED.
