wifi-dialog: add tooltip to password dialog to help with disabled "Connect" button
If the connection is invalid, the "Connect" button in the Wi-Fi password dialog stays disabled and makes it hard for the user to understand the reason. Especially when connecting to certain EAP-typed Wi-Fi connections, the connection might have no CA certificate set. However, if the connection was not previously edited with nm-connection-editor, the connection is considered invalid by nm-applet because "No CA certificate is required" is unchecked. As this flag is only stored in the gsetting of the user, NetworkManager and nm-applet disagree about whether the connection is valid. Add a tooltip to the connect button to indicate to the user that the connection must be modified first. Steps to reproduce: - create a Wi-Fi connection of type EAP (PEAP, TLS, or TTLS) outside of nm-applet/nm-connection-editor. Or alternatively, clear the gsettings entry with: dconf reset -f /org/gnome/nm-applet/eap/ - try to connect to the Wi-Fi. Note that the "Connect" button of the password dialog is diabled (just like the "Save" button in nm-ce). https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=754172 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1247885 (cherry picked from commit 53e801f3)
