    checkpoint/trivial: rename nm_checkpoint_manager_unref() to nm_checkpoint_manager_free() · 45c24fb9

    NMCheckpointManager was added and is not ref-countable, because it
    is not needed.
    
    I still often like for such objects (that are not ref-countable),
    that their destroy function is called "unref". Both for consistency,
    and also if we would later add ref-counting to the object.
    
    However, NMCheckpointManager keeps a pointer to NMManager. So, when
    NMManager gets destroyed, it *MUST* destroy the NMCheckpointManager.
    It cannot accept that the checkpoint manager outlives NMManager,
    but the "unref" name suggests that somebody else might have still
    a reference to this object keeping it alive. That is not the case.
    
    Rename so that this is clear.
    
    I would name it nm_checkpoint_manager_destroy(), but "destroy" already
    has a meaning for NMCheckpoint instances, so use "free".
