NetworkMenu: remove broken device activation policy

Previously, when toggling a switch on we tried to replicate NM policy and
find a good connection to activate. This is broken in many situations.
Instead, only activate something when we can be sure it's what the user
wants (i.e. when there is only one connection, or when there is none,
and thus connecting will trigger the config dialog)

[EXPERIMENTAL] PowerMenu: add a toggle switch for controlling mobile broadband card

The network menu no longer allows to control power to the 3G cards.
Place it in the power menu instead, and label it generically "Modem",
as it controls data, SMS, GPS and possibly other services.

Attached for design testing.

After short IRC discussion, we concluded this is desirable
indepently of the rest of the network menu relayout.

what does the rest of the network menu relayout block on ?

This will be obsoleted by the combined system status menu, should we close it?

Yes.
