Public bug reported:

The version of systemd-networkd on Ubuntu Focal refuses to configure a
route due to the fact that the address of the gateway is outside of the
subnet of the NIC. The onlink option is required. This does not happen
on Jammy and Noble.

Steps to reproduce:

```
# ip a
2: ens2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel state UP 
group default qlen 1000
    link/ether de:00:00:62:c5:e9 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    inet 212.47.xxx.xxx/32 scope global dynamic ens2
       valid_lft 800sec preferred_lft 800sec
    inet6 2001:xxx:xxx:xxxx:xxxx:xx:xxxx:c5e9/64 scope global
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 fe80::dc00:ff:fe62:c5e9/64 scope link
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever

# cat /etc/netplan/50-cloud-init.yaml
version: 2
ethernets:
    ens2:
        addresses:
        - 2001:xxx:xxx:xxxx:xxxx:xx:xxxx:c5e9/64
        dhcp4: true
        routes:
        -   to: 169.254.42.42/32
            via: 62.210.0.1
        -   to: ::/0
            via: fe80::dc00:ff:fe62:c5ea

# netplan apply

# journalctl -b -u systemd-networkd
...
Jul 18 10:05:59 focal systemd-networkd[668]: ens2: Could not set route: Nexthop 
has invalid gateway. Network is unreachable
...
```

Is this something that netplan fixes and presents it in a better way to
networkd in newer versions? Or is this something that networkd improves
in newer versions?
