The default for both core20 and server is 'net.ifnames=0' which disables
persistent network interface names so it's expected to see eth0 and
wlan0.
cat /proc/cmdline
coherent_pool=1M 8250.nr_uarts=1 bcm2708_fb.fbwidth=1280
bcm2708_fb.fbheight=1024 bcm2708_fb.fbswap=1 smsc95xx.macaddr=DC:A6:32:08:85:96

However, if I drop 'net.ifnames=0' from cmdline.txt I *do* get a
persistent name on a 3B+ but *not* on a 4B.

systemd can't handle the platform attached bcmgenet driver of the Pi 4B
so hence no renaming.
I've created the following systemd file
$ cat /etc/systemd/network/73-platform-net-by-mac.link
[Match]
Path=platform-*.ethernet
[Link]

rebooted and ended up with a persistent net name for eth0:

Don't know if that's the right way to do this. Also, wlan0 still has a
non-persistent name, so that needs to be addressed too if we want to go that
route.
