tools/test-networkmanager-service.py is our NetworkManager stub server. NetworkManager uses libnm(-core) heavily, for example to decide whether a connection verifies (nm_connection_verify()) and for normalizing connections (nm_connection_normalize()). If the stub server wants to mimic NetworkManager, it also must use these function. Luckily, we already can do so, by loading libnm using python GObject introspection. We already correctly set GI_TYPELIB_PATH search path, so that the correct libnm is loaded -- provided that we build with introspection enabled. We still need to gracefully fail, if starting the stub server fails. That requries some extra effort. If the stub server notices that something is missing, it shall exit with status 77. That will cause the tests to g_test_skip().
