Thanks for isolating how these devices are created!

I don't believe that cloud-init has changed anything in this area, so I
would still like confirmation that this is a case that cloud-init
definitely needs to workaround. (Rather than it being the case that
there's an underlying bug which, being involved in networking early in
boot, we are the first to encounter.)

Using device names is generally not reliable. In this specific case,
with this config passed to a LXD VM:
bridges:
br.100:
dhcp4: true
interfaces:
- enp5s0
macaddress: 52:54:00:d9:08:1c
mtu: 1500
ethernets:
enp5s0:
mtu: 1500
version: 2
it comes up with working networking and I see:
# cat /sys/class/net/br.100/uevent
DEVTYPE=bridge
INTERFACE=br.100
IFINDEX=3
(While you (and I) can certainly question the wisdom of naming a non-VLAN
like this, cloud-init's code cannot assume that there aren't users out
there doing this, for whatever reason.)
