[Bug 1933095] [NEW] [SRU] AD option not available for network-only connection

[Didier Roche]

Public bug reported:

[Impact]

 * If an user has a local network, without Internet access, the Active
Directory option is not available for it. The option will only be
available with Internet access, which isn’t needed for local AD.

[Test Plan]

 * Start ubiquity with this fixed version installed. Internet access
should be available.

 * Check on that the checkbox for download updates during installation
is available.

 * Drop the Internet access, but keep a local network available.

 * Check that anything that needs Internet access will now be
unavailable.

 * In the user setup page, the Active Directory checkbox will be
sensitive.

[Where problems could occur]

 * We added a new functionality in misc.py which is only used in the
Active Directory checkbox sensitivy. Only this page (User) could be
affected.

 * However, we slightly refactored the code for Internet access
detection to reuse this code. This is why the test plan cover no
regression in the download updates area.
