Need a way for external processes to ask for sim unlocking.

[Antti Kaijanmäki]

indicator-network-service contains the logic to drive the simunlock snap decision. Currently the only way of triggering sim unlocking is to manually click on the "Unlock SIM..." item inside indicator network.

Greeter (and why not some telephony related apps) needs a way to ask indicator-network-service to perfom a sim unlocking.
Currently the phone does not ask for PIN code automatically after bootup because the greeter has no way of asking indicator-network-service to show the dialog.

the attached branch now contains connectivity service for the session bus with the following details:

service: com.ubuntu.connectivity1
object: /com/ubuntu/connectivity1/Private
interface: com.ubuntu.connectivity1.Private

That interface has a method UnlockAllModems() that invokes the pin dialogs for any locked modems.
The method takes 0 parameters, returns void and does not block.
