Bug Description

[Impact]
Users of netplan may wish to specify a custom MTU value for a device.

[Test case]
- Run nplan integration tests on the release
- Validate that netplan generate && netplan apply alone, without config, behave as expected (no result)
- Validate that netplan generate && netplan apply with minimal config writes /run/NetworkManager/conf.d/10-globally-managed-devices.conf
- Validate that netplan generate && netplan apply works with any existing configuation.
- Use the following config; ensure behavior is as expected (MTU value is set on the interface; adjust device name as appropriate):

network:
  version: 2
  ethernets:
    eno1:
      match:
        macaddress: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
      dhcp4: true
      mtu: 1280

[Regression potential]
Adding the 'mtu' setting on pre-existing valid configuration should not cause a failure to apply the configuration. Similarly, unchanged existing configurations should continue to behave as they previously did, with no changes in MTU values.

I suggest that we merge/land this MTU support first; and then I'll file another bug specifically for IPV6 Mtu support for netplan once we resolve the systemd bug.

---------------
nplan (0.21) artful; urgency=medium

  [ Ryan Harper ]
  * Add support for setting MTU on a device. (LP: #1668693)

  [ Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre ]
  * Don't rebind Atheros AR9271; it would confuse the driver. (LP: #1672740)
  * debian/control: Add Conflicts: against netplan; the network 'plan' daemon.
    Both ship the same /usr/sbin/netplan. (LP: #1665842)
