Instead of connecting once and saving the packet data handle, let the
firmware handle connecting/reconnecting automatically. This is more
reliable and reduces reliance on potentially stale data.
Use the global packet data handle to attempt to disable autoconnect
before restarting the connection. This ensures that the firmware will
take the new APN/auth settings.

Many of the 4G/LTE and 3G modems utilize the QMI-protocol to control the
modem. At the moment there is no support for them in OpenWrt. This
patch adds support for them in the form of a netifd script and a
control utility. Tested with Huawei E398 and ZTE MF820D (which requires
a delay of ~30 s before responding to QMI commands). I put myself up as
the maintainer, feel free to change this if you desire.
