Patch

I'm using telepathy-ofono with its MC account plugin setting the ofono
account up. The ofono account has always_dispatch set to true, however
when autoconnecting on system startup where no network is available, the
account will not connect and wait for network to come up.

While autoconnecting on MC startup, it gets all the way to
"mcd_account_connection_proceed_with_reason" function where it fails the
"mcd_connectivity_monitor_is_online" check in mcd-account-
connection.c:103 for the account which then leads to the account being
stuck in this state:

Presences:
   Automatic: available (2) ""
     Current: offline (1) ""
   Requested: available (2) ""
    Changing: yes

and from the Debug interface:

"mcd", 5, "mcd_account_connection_proceed_with_reason:
ofono/ofono/account0 wants to connect, but we're offline; queuing it up"

...until there's a network connection. Once there is a network,
everything works just fine.

However if I understand the purpose of always_dispatch=true correctly,
it should ignore the network state and just connect.

So here's a simple patch which makes it work as expected. Now I'm not
sure if this patch is correct as I don't know the MC code that well, but
it does fix the issue of always_dispatch=true-account not being
connected when there's no network.

This patch is against version 5.16.3.

Title:
  [PATCH] Skip network checks on always dispatchable accounts

Status in Telepathy Mission Control 5:
  Confirmed
Status in telepathy-mission-control-5 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  MissionControl does not seem to connect accounts that have
  always_dispatch=true attribute set; that attribute is meant to serve
  as "skip network connection checks when connecting"-kind of thing.
  After some investigation, I've found a possible bug and created a
  patch. I've posted this patch to upstream [1] but the general activity
  in the project has declined and so it might take quite some time
  before it's reviewed and put into a release.

  Therefore I was advised to file a bug report here for a chance for
  this patch to be included as a distro patch. This would also help fix
  this issue in ubuntu-phone, where it is currently being
  workarounded[2].

  The patch itself is located at [1] so I'm not going to reupload it
  here.

  Cheers,
  Martin
