Bug Description
[Impact]
Any user doing an install on a system with a wireless device.
[Test cases]
Install Ubuntu on a system with a wireless device. Verify that you are presented with a wizard panel asking you which network in range you would like to connect to.
[Regression Potential]
None. This corrects an issue specific to building NM 1.2 which has been ported to GDBus. Reverting to a previous version of NM should still work with the new property name, which is the correct name as Documented and as exported by the API.

While testing the Ubuntu and Ubuntu MATE 16.04 20160420.1 images Ubiquity is no longer prompting to join available WiFi networks.
`nmcli dev` is correctly reporting wireless and wired devices. It is possible to use the network indicator in Ubiquity to manually join a wireless network. This issue also affects oem-config both during the initial install and after preparation for the customer.
