Bug description:
  PR: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/5117

  issue: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/4057

  Before the networkd from 231 was backported, it was possible to use
  interface alias names that contained a colon, e.g. eth0:1. This is
  commonly used to make legacy tools like "ifconfig" work, because they
  *expect* a colon in the interface name.

  Martin told me to file a bug for this.

  Merging networkd from 231 lead to a regression where valid configs
  were not accepted anymore after the backport. Please merge that fix
  for the regression.
