Modify a single property in the connection.

The connection is identified by its name, UUID or D-Bus path. If <ID> is
ambiguous, a keyword \fIid\fP, \fIuuid\fP or \fIpath\fP can be used.
See \fInm-settings\fP(5) for setting and property names, their descriptions
and default values. This command supports abbreviations for \fIsetting name\fP
and \fIproperty name\fP provided they are unique. When \fIvalue\fP is not
specified, the property will be set to the default value (deleted).
and \fIproperty name\fP provided they are unique. Empty \fIvalue\fP ("")
removes the property value (sets the property to the default value).
The provided value overwrite the existing property value. If you want to
append to the existing value instead, use \fI+\fP prefix for the property name.
But it only has a real effect for multi-value (container) properties like ipv4.dns,
ipv4.addresses, etc.
.br
The changed values will be saved persistently by NetworkManager, unless
\fI--temporary\fP option is provided, in which case the changes won't persist
over NetworkManager restart.
