I noticed one difference between our configs was that you did not have public ipv6 set up. I shut down radvd on my router and rebooted as a test; this seems to cause a slight delay at boot (long enough for systemd to send a message warning that it's waiting for the network to be configured), but this takes about 15s before it gives up on ipv6, not 2 minutes.

Installation finishes without issues but booting the installed system takes a long time (until systemd-networkd-wait-online.service times out). The VM can already be pinged at that stage, so network has been configured at that stage. It just seems that the waiting command does not notice the interface being up. From the installed system (after timeout) it looks like the lo device is set up via /etc/network/interfaces but the NIC is set in /etc/netplan/01-netcfg.yaml. systemd-networkd.service: Jun 13 17:07:08 bar-artful6401 systemd[1]: Starting Network Service...
