Íñigo Huguet a04b3f5b73 nmcli: add managed --permanent yes/no/up/down/reset
Allow to manage or unmanage a device persisting across reboots.
If --permanent is not specified, only the runtime managed state is
changed, preserving the previous behavior. The --permanent-only
option allows to edit only the persistent value, without touching
the runtime value.

Also add the values up/down. Up means managed=yes and set device's
administrative state UP. Down means managed=no and admin state DOWN.

Add the value 'reset' too. It reverts managed runtime status to default
behaviour. When used with `--permanent` flag, the persisted managed
settings is cleared.
