Title:
  Update Wi-Fi icons between disconnect and adapter deactivation

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Upstream patch: 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/3840
  (currently being upstreamed, WIP)

  Impacts Noble, Plucky, Questing

  SRU Justification:

  [ Impact ]

  Prior to this patch, upon a connected AP disconnecting from
  the device, the current quicksettings wi-fi icon will continue
  showing the "network-wireless-connected-symbolic" symbol in
  the time between the initial disconnection and the adapter
  deactivation, even though the connection has been
  degraded by virtue of no longer being routable.

  [ Test Plan ]

  1. Connect an access point to the test device. 
  2. Turn off the access point.

  Without the fix, it will take about 30 seconds for the Wi-Fi
  quicksettings icon to change to the adapter deactivated state. With
  the fix, the "question mark" variant of the icon will be shown
  immediately and remain visible until we reach the adapter deactivated
  state.

  [ Fix ]

  To make this clearer to the user, this change modifies
  quicksettings' wifi icon to reflect the degraded state.

  
  [ Where problems could occur ]

  This is purely a cosmetic change, so at most, a user may be surprised
  to find that the icon state updates differently (more quickly) than it
  used to.
