Connman support is actually already disabled in fso-gsmd, since
fso-gsmd needs at least connman 0.68 and Debian has only 0.48.
Thus the build dependency can simply be removed.

Can this wait another week? Next week will be a new upstream
release of all fso components, which we plan to upload asap
to be in time for wheezy.
