networkmodel: fix case when NM D-Bus `GetSettings` returns empty connection

#### Short description

NM D-Bus `GetSettings`:
```
qdbus --system --literal org.freedesktop.NetworkManager
/org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Settings/1
org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.Settings.Connection.GetSettings
```

can return empty connection if user has no permission to perform this operation
(for example, if this connection is not public).

So, we need read public settings (id, name, type) from `ActiveConnection`
object.

#### Current behaviour

And for example, if you connect to non-public (not for all users) Wi-Fi under
one `userA`, and then switch to another `userB`, then there is a bug when the
Wi-Fi widget displays as if we are connected to all Wi-Fi at the same time (all
Wi-Fi connections is active).

#### Expected behaviour

`userB` should only see an active connection in the widget, but should not be
able to turn it off or change it.
