Hello!

I have a bridge that was created before the start of NM and it
shouldn't be managed by NM. But NM ignores unmanaged specs from a
plugin: device_has_config() always returns TRUE for bridges, so default
connection is generated and NM tries to manage the bridge.
Attached patch fixes this, although I'm not sure that's the right way.

What's the specific issue with NM managing the bridge?  Our goal is to
allow NM to manage *every* device without touching it if it's already
configured.  I know of one specific bug here with bridges that is a
problem (NM sets it "up" immediately), and we're working on fixing that.
If we fixed that, would it solve your issue?
