Update2 (IN a{sa{sv}} settings,
IN u flags,

</programlisting>
<para> Provide an empty array, to use the current settings.
<parameter>flags</parameter>: optional flags argument. Currently, supported flags are:
"0x1" (to-disk),
"0x2" (in-memory),
"0x4" (in-memory-detached),
"0x8" (in-memory-only),
"0x10" (volatile),
"0x20" (block-autoconnect),
"0x40" (no-reapply).
Unknown flags cause the call to fail.
<parameter>args</parameter>: optional arguments dictionary, for extentibility. Currently, no
arguments are accepted. Specifying unknown keys causes the call
to fail.
<parameter>result</parameter>: output argument, currently no results are returned.
</para><para> Update the connection with new settings and properties (replacing all
previous settings and properties). If the flag 0x1 is present,
the connection is persisted to disk. If the flag 0x2 is present,
the change is only made in memory (without touching an eventual
profile on disk). If neither 0x1 nor 0x2 is set, the change is made
in memory only, if the connection is already in memory only.
The flags 0x4 (in-memory-detached) and 0x8 (in-memory-only) are like
"in-memory", but behave slightly different when migrating the profile
from disk to in-memory.
The flag 0x20 (block-autoconnect) blocks auto-connect on the updated
profile, and 0x40 (no-reapply) prevents "connection.zone" and "connection.metered"
properties to take effect on currently active devices.
Secrets may be part of the update request, and will be either stored in persistent
storage or sent to a Secret Agent for storage, depending on the flags
associated with each secret.
