Jim Broadus ec0d9c4746 networkmanager: fix iptables and nft paths
The NetworkManager meson.build is searching for iptables and nft by
passing absolute paths to meson's find_program. The result is that it
locates tools on the host machine when they exist at those locations. If
they don't, it uses default locations. This often works out, but in some
cases, such as when the host uses a merged usr scheme and the build
target does not, the paths will be incorrect and the tools won't be
found at runtime.

These could be PACKAGECONFIG options, but since they have fallback
values, completely disabling the use of either iptables or nft would
require patching the meson.build or setting a bogus location.

Note that this meson.build file follows the same pattern elsewhere, but
most cases are already covered by PACKAGECONFIG options.

meta-networking
===============

This layer is intended to be a central point for networking-related
packages and configuration.  It should be useful directly on top of
oe-core and compliments meta-openembedded.  It should be primarily useful
to the following groups:

      - Anyone building a small networking device (eg. a home router /
        bridge / switch).

      - Anyone wanting to add network services to their device (eg.
        anything that might benefit from a small ftp/tftp server)

Dependencies
------------

This layer depends on:

URI: git://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core
branch: kirkstone

For some recipes, the meta-oe layer is required:

URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
subdirectory: meta-oe
branch: kirkstone

URI: git://git.openembedded.org/meta-openembedded
subdirectory: meta-python
branch: kirkstone
