D18621: Add again a button to manually scan for wireless networks

  If it wil be made configurable, you wouldn't be still able to use it, without depending on newer NM version.
  
  I don't see a big deal doing it this way:
  
  1. Applet opened → request a scan
  2. If the scan didn't go well, because we hit the 10s timout, go for another one in 5 seconds
  3. Repeat step 2 if it failed again (two tries should be enough)
  4. Continue with 15s interval
  
  This re-scan thing can be implemented in the replyFinished() signal where you know it failed. If in case 2 or 3 it successfuly made a scan, then we should reset the timer in the applet, otherwise you end up with 20+ seconds again.
