How to set ipv4.dns-search persistently with NetworkManager

Issue

• We require use of the search option in /etc/resolv.conf. We use Azure, and it does not allow search to be configured, only nameserver. Azure sets a default search field, which we'd like to override.

# cat /etc/resolv.conf
; generated by /usr/sbin/dhclient-script
search foo.example.com
nameserver 192.168.0.1
nameserver 192.168.0.2
nameserver 192.168.0.3

• We are using NetworkManager to set dns-search by running command nmcli con mod eno1 ipv4.dns-search "bar.example.com", which works in runtime, but it is not persistent.
• Need a persistent way to change/override default search parameter in /etc/resolv.conf
