25f3ce8c14 portalHelper: Address intermittent TLS failures
Users are currently experiencing intermittent (and hard to debug) TLS
errors when loading the portal authentication page. This could be
caused by using http://www.gnome.org/ for our connectivity checks
because it redirects to HTTPS.

We can completely remove TLS from the equation by not using HTTPS.
http://nmcheck.gnome.org/ is a good choice because it doesn't redirect
to HTTPS and was created for NetworkManager's connectivity check.

c363e2a322 PortalHelper: Make translator comment appear
Use "/* */" for the translator comment, so that xgettext can extract it.

b6e6e097b7 PortalHelper: fix portals that don't redirect properly
We assumed that either a portal would give us a target URI, or we
would eventually reach the URI of our choice (which is http://www.gnome.org)

This is not always the case: even after a successful login we may
stay in a confirmation page, so make sure that every time we see a
redirect we trigger a connectivity check (or queue one for when
the user closes the window)

8c67a70db0 Add a helper to handle captive portal logins
Add a small DBus-activated GtkApplication that embeds a WebKitWebView
and implements some minimal logic to see if the login succeeds.
It will try to connect to a custom NM-provided url (the portal login
page), if one exists, or to www.gnome.org in the normal case of
a portal doing redirect.
