      .`nmtui` now supports configuring the loopback interface

      NetworkManager already supports configuring the loopback interface by using the `nmcli` utility. This enhancement adds the same functionality to the `nmtui` application. As a result, you can configure IP addresses and routes on the loopback interface.

      This task is tracking the ability to configure the loopback interface directly via nmtui. The system administrators should be able to enable/disable it and update the settings like IP addresses and routes. This will make their network configurations easier.
