manager: don't assume connection if device has ActRequest

The @dracut_NM_vlan_over_team_no_boot sometimes fails, among other
things, because it fails to assume an indicated connection after a
restart.

That seems to happen because after the decision to activate the
indicated connection, the device does not move from DISCONNECTED state
quickly enough. Another assumption recheck runs in between and decides
to generate a connection, because the assume state was already reset
in between.

First start, creates and activates b3a61b68-f744-4a4c-a513-61399c154a67
on vlan0017:

  NetworkManager (version 1.41.1-30921.55767cf5c5.el9) is starting...
      (asserts:10000, boot:caf7301a-19cd-498b-b5ba-5d36ee939ffe)
  ...
  settings: update[b3a61b68-f744-4a4c-a513-61399c154a67]: adding connection "vlan0017"
      (45113870df0a4cfb/keyfile)

Second start:

  NetworkManager (version 1.41.1-30921.55767cf5c5.el9) is starting...
      (after a restart, asserts:10000, boot:caf7301a-19cd-498b-b5ba-5d36ee939ffe)

Assumption attempt successfully picks the right connection and thus
proceeds to reset the assume state:

  manager: (vlan0017): assume: will attempt to assume matching connection 'vlan0017'
      (b3a61b68-f744-4a4c-a513-61399c154a67) (indicated)
  device[c7c5101cf0b73f5f] (vlan0017): assume-state: set guess-assume=0, connection=(null)

Everything great so far, activation of the right connection is enqueued
and the device moves away from unavailable state. However, the
activation can't proceed immediately:

  device (vlan0017): state change: unmanaged -> unavailable
      (reason 'connection-assumed', sys-iface-state: 'assume')
  device (vlan0017): state change: unavailable -> disconnected
      (reason 'connection-assumed', sys-iface-state: 'assume')
  active-connection[0x55ba1162f1c0]: set device "vlan0017" [0x55ba1163c4f0]
  device[c7c5101cf0b73f5f] (vlan0017): queue activation request waiting for carrier

Now another assumption attempt is done. The original assume state is
gone, so a connection is generated:

  platform-linux: UDEV event: action 'add' subsys 'net' device 'vlan0017' (6); seqnum=1959
  device[c7c5101cf0b73f5f] (vlan0017): queued link change for ifindex 6
  manager: (vlan0017): assume: generated connection 'vlan0017' (57627119-8c20-4f9e-bf4d-4fc427b4a6a9)
  keyfile: commit: 57627119-8c20-4f9e-bf4d-4fc427b4a6a9 (vlan0017) added as
      "/run/NetworkManager/system-connections/vlan0017-57627119-8c20-4f9e-bf4d-4fc427b4a6a9.nmconnection"
      (nm-generated,volatile,external)

I think this shouldn't have happened. We've picked the correct
connection already and it's enqueued for activation!

Let's not assume anything if there's an activation request already.
