Auto reconfiguration of own certificate:
currently:
if kdeconncectd loads its certificate and its expired or not effective yet
it generates a new certificate
previously:
if kdeconncectd loads its certificate and its expired or not effective yet
it continues having the same certificate
This brings forth an issue: Other devices would refuse to connect to a device with
an expired or non-effective certificate.
Auto-delete of orphan certificates:
currently:
Devices in kdeconnectd's devicelist that have illegal ssl certificates
(expired, not effective yet, empty) get automatically deleted from the
devicelist
previously:
they would just exist forever until the user deletes them
A year does not have 356 days:
currently: int a_year_in_seconds = 365 * 24 * 60 * 60;
previously: int a_year_in_seconds = 356 * 24 * 60 * 60;

When bluetooth doesn't exist on the machine at all, QTConnectivity
tries to communicate with Bluez via dbus and introduces a 30 odd second
pause. That's not necessarily a problem in concept, however this blocks
the main thread of KDEConnect, which also then blocks the main thread
of Plasma on logon and causes tremendous delays and very broken
behaviour.
For the life of me, I cannot find a way to do "is bluetooth ok" without
QTConnect kicking off the dbus call so I think the only option is to
thread off the startup of the providers so that pauses don't block
the whole process.
I've just tested this here and my logon with bluetooth missing went
from approx 35 seconds down to about 2.
Ready for input/feedback whenever people have time; in my testing at the moment it seems to completely break the behaviour of KDEConnect (i.e. things can't connect), I'm guessing this is something to do with the effect of wrapping everything in the QThread. I'll dig into that next and see if I can figure it out.
BUG: 481870
## Summary
Fix Bluetooth branch build errors for changes in !678
## Test Plan
### Before:
Build errors in bluetoothlinkprovider.cpp due to undefined variable and due to incorrect argument type.
```
/home/simon/src/kdeconnect-kde/core/backends/bluetooth/bluetoothlinkprovider.cpp:301:56: error: cann
ot convert ‘NetworkPacket’ to ‘NetworkPacket*’
301 | if (!success || !DeviceInfo::isValidIdentityPacket(receivedPacket)) {
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
| |
| NetworkPacket
<snip>
```
### After:
Clean build.
Use smaller and safer EC keys, replacing 2048 bit RSA.
NID_X9_62_prime256v1 is roughly as secure as a 3072 bit RSA key, but way shorter.
Since we have to embed the key in the identity packet that is sent over UDP and
some stacks aren't happy with large UDP messages (notably: macos), I switched to
EC instead of to a longer RSA key.
This seems to be compatible with other clients even on older systems like Android 5.0.
I did stick with NID_X9_62_prime256v1 because stronger EC like NID_secp384r1 failed
the handshake (I didn't investigate why).
We now store the kind of key in the config, so we can know which kind of key we are loading.
Now that devices can potentially be connected via both network and bluetooth simultaneously we should prioritise connections over the highest performing link (probably wifi/network). To this end the
m_deviceLinks are now sorted based on priority with the fastest links first; this means that when Device::sendPacket is scheduling to send a packet, it should always use the fastest link first.
The device ID is sanitized to make it safe for D-Bus, so the device ID
stored in the certificate as the subject name also needs to be
sanitized before comparison.
We operate on a QSharedData object and thus can trivially make a copy. We generally don't use use const refs as return values in KDE APIs unless there is a compelling reason to do so
KDNSSD only works with Avahi (so, only on Linux) while mdns.h is a
header-only library [1] that implements mdns from scratch and should
work on all platforms.

We can always provide a function rather than a value.
This is what we do in most places already and is consistent with the
rest of KDE.
This gets compiled to the same code.
```cpp
explicit QLoggingCategoryMacroHolder(const QLoggingCategory &cat)
{
if (IsOutputEnabled)
init(cat);
}
explicit QLoggingCategoryMacroHolder(QMessageLogger::CategoryFunction catfunc)
{
if (IsOutputEnabled)
init(catfunc());
}
```
By commenting out the parameter name, we get compile-time checks
Also, we can omit them for slots and Qt will not forward the parameters.
In case we had TODOs next to the code, I kept the Q_UNUSED statements
for now.
Overriding and defaulting them in the header doesn't make sense
For the dbus interfaces, we don't have any reasources to clean up or memory to be released. Meaning we can drop those lines too
- Using QLatin1String when concatinating strings is faster, because they
are more lightweight. For the resulting string, we need to allocate
new memory anyway
- Use QLatin1String overloads where they are provided by Qt APIs
- Just use const char* for log messages, the quoting of QStrings is not
needed
- Make sure to reuse string results when possible
- We do not need the return type. If a plugin declares it can handle the
packet it should do so. We don't have any fallback logic in place and
the packet types are namespaced with the plugin IDs anyway.
- Provide a default implementation with a warning, not all plugins need
to overwrite this
