Add NetworksManager to manage a list of predefined networks
Picking a predefined entry instead of having to enter a hostname/IP and possibly a port will be a big usability improvement for users. And for us, knowing which network the users wants to connect to will open the door for future improvements, like using encrypted connections where available or having a list of fallback servers to try on connection failures. The list itself is mostly irc-networks.xml from telepathy-account-widgets converted to JSON (because gjs' XML story sucks) - there's a fair chance that entries are as outdated as the GNOME ones were, so take it with a grain of salt ... https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=761859
