NetWatcher: detect when networkmanager has lost network connection

Browse source 
This is a better approach to finding both when NM has lost a network
connection, and when a new network connection is made by NM.

Tested with network-manager 0.9.8.8.

TODO:
* The NetWatcher does not detect network loss, only network gain,
so PAUSE is only sent when a new network is detected, followed
immediately by RESUME.
* For wicd, the NetWatcher does not detect network loss, only network gain.
So PAUSE is only sent when a new network is detected, followed
immediately by RESUME. This was already fixed for networkmanager.
* Remote system might not be available. Find a smart way to detect it,
ideally w/o generating network traffic. One way might be to check
if the ssh connection caching control socket exists, for example.
