libnm-core/man: add a warning on static link negotiation parameters
When disabling link autonegotiation and setting speed and duplex manually, the user is alone: no check is performed against supplied values. So, the user is supposed to check that the device supports those values. Explicit this in nm-settings man page. [fgiudici@redhat.com: added the commit message]
