Title:
  resolvconf not updated correctly for interfaces configured in
  initramfs

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  maas images utilize cloud-initramfs-dyn-netconf . The way this works is basically:
   * /etc/network/interfaces in image is a link to ../../run/network/dynamic-interfaces
   * kernel command line 'ip=' convince the initramfs to bring up networking using 'ipconfig'
     example: ip=::::maas-enlist:BOOTIF
   * ipconfig writes files in /run/net-*.conf for each interface it configures.
   * cloud-initramfs-dyn-netconf module writes /run/network/dyanmic-interfaces based on /run/net-*.conf files that 'ipconfig' creates.

  end result is that after the move to real root,
  /etc/network/interfaces should be a symlink to /run/ that ends up
  having something like this:

   | ## This file is generated by cloud-initramfs-dyn-netconf
   | auto lo
   | iface lo inet loopback
   | manual eth0
   | iface eth0 inet dhcp
   | dns-nameservers 192.168.64.3
   | dns-search maas

  resolvconf seems not to be working as well as it should be.  In vivid
  (now using systemd), I have only the resolvconf header in the file.

   in all other supported ubuntu releases, doing the above results in functional resolv.conf via resolv.conf. Seen here from trusty:
   | # Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
   | #     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
   | nameserver 192.168.64.3
