    applet: If permitted, create system Wi-Fi connections
    
    Wi-Fi connections were being always created with the default of
    connection.permissions=user:<current_user>.  Now create them with empty
    permissions ("All users may connect to this network") if the user is
    authorized to create/modify system connections, similar to the logic in
    other clients.
