Update Connection
PATCH/api/v1/connections/:connection_id
Update a connection.
For the config field, submitted values are MERGED with the existing
decrypted config rather than overwriting it. Empty/None values in the
submission mean "no change for this field" — this is what lets the
edit form leave the password blank when the user only wants to change
the host. Without merging, every edit would force the user to re-type
every credential.
