Currently, if a CTRL method does not set the reply, an error is
logged ("cmd->reply has not been set").

This patch changes the logging level from ERROR to INFO. The logging
is now only done, when the retry has not been set and the
implementation returns CTRL_CMD_ERROR or the GET has been used. This
means, every time a error is signalled or GET is used, the retry
field shall be set.

Some missing reply texts in error cases are also added.

hmm. I would like to see some more reflection here. The "reply" not
being set being an ERROR was done by you, now the NAT might have a
legetimate use-case for not setting a reply. I don't see this being
reflected in the commit message.

I am not convinced. The NAT will still generate these messages on
the stdout but there is nothing to be fixed?! To make the actual log
message more useful one should output the name of command. :)

Hmm, "unimplemented" somehow indicates that we would know what to
implement. E.g. if we take a look at verify_msc_connection_status
I claim that "msc_connection_status" is just a read-only attribute.

The same here. It is read-only.

It should probably be read-only. I will introduce a CTRL_CMD_DEFINE
for read-only commands but the actual issue is still there.
