Recent versions of RHEL 8 and RHEL 9 started using NetworkManager to configure network intefaces instead of sysconfig files. Configurations are no longer stored in /etc/sysconfig/ifcfg-{interface}.

Fix this for setting DHCP hostnames in those RHEL versions.

@ani-sinha Thank you for the PR. Hostname publishing on Rhel 8/9 is a high priority item for us. I'll work on stress testing this solution over the next few weeks.

@maddieford actually we have been using this patch downstream for a long time on RHEL 9. I just wanted you to know push this upstream so that we can drop this downstream only patch.

I somehow missed this PR and sent my own version: #3243
the difference between the two is that I do not believe "nmcli device modify" is sufficient and thus I do "nmcli connection modify" instead. This way, the change is supposed to be persistent.

I am closing this in favor of #3243
