networks: Activate the newly created connections

Browse Source 
When network-manager restarts, it leaves the existing connections intact. When
it start again, it somehow restores that active connection. So, restarting
network-manager is not a solution to activate all newly created connections.
Explicitly activate all connections and don't restart network-manager. Do
connection activation in background so that failed activation does not lead to
failed setup of remaining connections.
