man: mention the meaning of may-fail in the nm-online man page

Browse source 
Commit b2a0738765 ('man: improve manual page for nm-online') removed
the explanation of how may-fail can be used to wait for a specific
address family during boot. I found that part useful.

Note: this branch doesn't have commit 1e5206414a ('device: don't
delay startup complete for pending-actions "autoconf", "dhcp4" and
"dhcp6"') and so the text is different from branch nm-1-22 and later.
