Replacing a Signal

This operation is known as redefining a signal connection. It disconnects a given
signal and connects a different signal in its place (by contrast, renaming a signal
assigns a new name to a signal, while the signal itself remains the same).
Redefinition of signals can occur from one symbol to another symbol, or within the
same symbol.
