Synopsis:
nmcli con modify -<property>.<setting> <value>
'value' can be empty ("") to remove the whole property value value (in this
case the behaviour is the same as without '-').
Or the 'value' is an index of the item to remove, or an option name (for a few
properties that have option names, like bond.options or ethernet.s390-options).
$ nmcli con mod myeth ipv4.dns "10.0.0.55 10.0.0.66 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4"
---> ipv4.dns: 10.0.0.55, 10.0.0.66, 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4
$ nmcli con mod myeth -ipv4.dns 1
---> ipv4.dns: 10.0.0.55, 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4
---> bond.options: mode=balance-rr
$ nmcli con mod bond0 +bond.options "mii=500, downdelay=800"
---> bond.options: downdelay=800,miimon=500,mode=balance-rr
$ nmcli con mod bond0 -bond.options downdelay
---> bond.options: miimon=500,mode=balance-rr
The [main] section is not mandatory.
Clarify in several places that the keyfile plugin is always used for
fallback, and that the [keyfile] section is normally only used if you
aren't using any other plugin.
Fix some erroneous references to "keyfile" and "ifdown" in the
ifupdown section.
Update the ifcfg-rh docs to list all currently-supported connection
types.
Swap the order of ifcfg-suse and ifupdown to make them alphabetical.
(Note that ifnet is currently missing.)

Handle connection profiles in a single 'show' command instead of 'show active'
and 'show configured'.
nmcli con show [--active] [[id|uuid|path|apath] <bla>]
nmcli con show : display all connection profiles
nmcli con show --active : only display active connection profiles
(filters out inactive profiles)
nmcli con show myeth : display details of "myeth" profile, and also active
connection info (if the profile is active)
nmcli -f profile con show myeth : only display "myeth"'s static configuration
nmcli -f active con show myeth : only display active details of "myeth"
nmcli -f connection.id,ipv4,general con show myeth
: display "connection.id"a property
"ipv4" setting and "GENERAL" group
of active data

Make clear, that only full names are guaranteed to work in future
versions. The use of some abbreviations might break as new options
get added.
It would be rather complicated, to ensure, that abbreviations always
continue to work, at the additional disadvantage, that they no longer
uniquely identify an option. Instead, clearly state that using
them is not guaranteed to work in the future. Users that care about
long term compatibility should instead spell out the full names.
Abbreviations are mainly here for interactive use.

The previous ignore-carrier rules did not work well with dynamic IP
(dhcp/slaac) connections. Change the rule so that only static IP
connections can be activated when carrier is not present (but both
static and dynamic connections will remain up when carrier is lost).
Add a "monitor-connection-files" config option, which can be set to
"false" to disable automatic reloading of connections on file change.
To go with this, add a new ReloadConnections method on
o.fd.NM.Settings that can be used to manually reload connections, and
add an nm-cli command to call it.
doing:
./configure --disable-gtk-doc
make clean
make
from a tarball build (or from a dirty tree that had previously had an
--enable-gtk-doc build) would fail, because configure would see the
pre-existing man pages and set INSTALL_PREGEN_MANPAGES, but "make
clean" would delete them, and there'd be no rule to regenerate them.
