Describe the bug
I am updating a vector tile layer with arcpy.server.ReplaceWebLayer and needing to ensure exportTiles=True, for offline capabilities to persist. After updating the service definition, the service needs to be stopped before the .edit() call and then started again after. Although the service shows exportTiles=True, Field maps errors saying that exportTiles is not equal to true unless you stop and start the service after editing the service definition with .edit().
To Reproduce

vector_layer_item = gis.content.get(itemid)
vector_tile_layer = VectorTileLayer.fromitem(vector_layer_item)
vtl_manager = vector_tile_layer.manager
vtl_manager.edit(service_dictionairy=serviceDefinition)
error:
No error, everything appears successful with the code, but when you go to create an offline area in Field Maps, it tells you that exportTiles is not enabled.
Adding a .stop() before .edit() and a .start() after .edit() allows tiles to be successfully taken offline.
Expected behavior
Documentation saying that you need .edit() to be wrapped with start/stop would be nice. Or if .edit() worked alone that would also be nice.
Platform (please complete the following information):
Additional context
Earlier in the script we are updating the Vector Tile Layer using arcpy.server.ReplaceWebLayer() if that matters in replicating this issue.
