Looking at the changelog I see that the new conf.d file is a debian
addition. The relevant changelog says:
* network-manager.postinst: Don't create
/etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/10-globally-managed-devices.conf override on
new installations. We don't want NM to manage non-wifi/wwan on
servers/cloud instances, and for desktops live-build now installs a
netplan policy snippet to let NM handle all devices.

Yet on my system there was no netplan, netplan is a dependency of
"ubuntu-standard". Installing ubuntu-standard hasn't changed anything. I wonder
how this was expected to work on upgrades.
In any case, I think that the "wwan" vs "gsm" is a separate bug that
needs investigation.
