[Bug 82381] network-admin generates chat script with invalid modem init string

Public bug reported:

network-admin creates a chatscript that contains the modem
initialization string "AT&FH0M0" which is invalid.  First, it is IMHO
not good to initialize the modem back to factory defaults without
prompting the user(&F).  Second, if there is anything after the AT&F it
needs to include the profile number first.  That is, AT&F is valid (the
modem assumes profile 0) but AT&FH0 is incorrect (because 'H' is not a
valid parameter for &F)

Note that the last statement is not necessarily correct for all modems,
but I believe it is for many, and it definitely is for mine.  Further,
all modems which support the AT command set should accept an AT&F0 --
that is, 'AT&F0H0M0' should be correct in more cases than 'AT&FH0M0'
