docs: give examples for users to replace networkmanager
What happened to the networkmanager block and how can I recreate the function it had?

Which info used to be available via networkmanager but not net? I suspect something VPN-related, but I've never used these.
I think main difference is that it supported regex for the interface name (which net does support now), and that it could display all interfaces in one block, so when connected to a VPN it would show up automatically.
Hopefully something like f72c362cb832681fe4f69089c7c691535c5c0595 is good enough
