We already do this.  cloud-init-local.service runs before networking; it
examines for *local* non-network seeds (like nocloud-net, or a config-drive
)
If that's present, it's sourced and used.

However, if there isn't a local seed, then we must search again *once*
networking is up.

This works just fine with 'networking.service' due to the "atomic" nature
of ifup where once
the oneshot service runs, we can assume that networking is up.

However, networkd runs and asynchronously brings up networking; which is
fine but we now
no longer have a clear checkpoint at which cloud-init can run with
networking up but before
we're at the full 'network-online.target'

I'm not sure how to close the subtle distinction between 'networking' and
'systemd-networkd'
but it's clearly different with no obvious way to make them equivalent.

It actually works quite well, except the netplan generator only creates a
wants for systemd-networkd, so nothing *wants* the netword-wait-online
unless we add it; this is problematic for cloud-init on a system which
doesn't
have a netplan config (where networkd isn't going to run).

Bug description:
  Ubuntu Core 16 images using cloud-init fail to function when the
  DataSource is over the network (Like OpenStack) as networking is not
  yet available when cloud-init.service runs.

  cloud-init service unit deps look like this:

  [Unit]
  Description=Initial cloud-init job (metadata service crawler)
  DefaultDependencies=no
  Wants=cloud-init-local.service
  Wants=local-fs.target
  Wants=sshd-keygen.service
  Wants=sshd.service
  After=cloud-init-local.service
  After=networking.service
  Requires=networking.service
  Before=basic.target
  Before=dbus.socket
  Before=network-online.target
  Before=sshd-keygen.service
  Before=sshd.service
  Before=systemd-user-sessions.service
  Conflicts=shutdown.target

  Here's networkd unit deps:

  [Unit]
  Description=Network Service
  Documentation=man:systemd-networkd.service(8)
  ConditionCapability=CAP_NET_ADMIN
  DefaultDependencies=no
  # dbus.service can be dropped once on kdbus, and systemd-udevd.service can be
  # dropped once tuntap is moved to netlink
  After=systemd-udevd.service dbus.service network-pre.target 
systemd-sysusers.service systemd-sysctl.service
  Before=network.target multi-user.target shutdown.target
  Conflicts=shutdown.target
  Wants=network.target

  # On kdbus systems we pull in the busname explicitly, because it
  # carries policy that allows the daemon to acquire its name.
  Wants=org.freedesktop.network1.busname
  After=org.freedesktop.network1.busname

  
  And a critical-chain output:

  root@snap-test7:~# systemd-analyze critical-chain systemd-networkd
  Failed to get ID: Unit name systemd-networkd is not valid.
  The time after the unit is active or started is printed after the "@"

  cloud-init would need networkd to run at or before 'networking.service' so it 
can raise networking to then find and use network-based datasources.
