Proposed Commit Message
Reloading the network manager service is equivalent to "nmcli reload" and this command only reloads the global .conf files and DNS config, not connections. This means changes to connection files will not take effect. For those to take effect, we need "nmcli conn load/reload" and then "nmcli conn up". Thus, reloading network manager as well as reloading the connections are required to cover all cases.
Also see #5512 (comment)
While at it, rename "reload-or-try-restart" -> "try-reload-or-restart" since the former is legacy and the later is the officially documented sub-command.
