[Bug 1441095] Re: novatel: improve probing for Dell branded modems

 Yes, I thought we need push the network-manager patch separately. I
will open another bug to trace it.

 And I found there are patch in 0.9.9.1, we need cherry pick into
0.9.8.8.

    mobile: use gateway returned from ModemManager
    
    If we get a gateway, use it.

Bug description:
  Dell rebrands modems from different vendors, including Novatel, Sierra
  and Ericsson. Until now we defaulted to the Novatel plugin when a Dell
  device was found, but then we're breaking newer MBIM Sierra Dell-
  branded modems, as we don't have MBIM support in the Novatel plugin.

  So, we should try to improve the probing in the Novatel, Sierra and
  MBM plugins, so that they probe also Dell devices, and we'll then try
  to match via AT-probing which plugin should be handling the Dell
  device.

  Could we backport this patch  into trusty? Thanks!
