This allows to adjust the timeout of an existing checkpoint.
The main usecase of checkpoints, is to have a fail-safe when
configuring the network remotely. By allowing to reset the timeout,
the user can perform a series of actions, and keep bumping the
timeout. That way, the entire series is still guarded by the same
checkpoint, but the user can start with short timeout, and
re-adjust the timeout as he goes along.
The libnm API only implements the async form (at least for now).
Sync methods are fundamentally wrong with D-Bus, and it's probably
not needed. Also, follow glib convenction, where the async form
doesn't have the _async name suffix. Also, accept a D-Bus path
as argument, not a NMCheckpoint instance. The libnm API should
not be more restricted than the underlying D-Bus API. It would
be cumbersome to require the user to lookup the NMCheckpoint
instance first, especially since libnm doesn't provide an efficient
or convenient lookup-by-path method. On the other hand, retrieving
the path from a NMCheckpoint instance is always possible.
