Use connectivity check URI from NetworkManager for Gnome Portal Helper

Clerie Riese requested to merge clerie/gnome-shell:clerie/web-portal-connectivity-check-uri into main

This tries to provide a fix for #1313 (closed)

Before opening Portal Helper, fetch Connectivity Check URI from NetworkManager config and use it in Portal Helper too. Currently nmcheck.gnome.org is hard coded when opening Portal Helper.

You can set a custom Connectivity Check URI in NetworkManager.conf:

[connectivity]
uri=http://ping.clerie.de/nm-check.txt

You can use http://ping.clerie.de/nm-check-test.txt as URI to trigger captive portal detection.
