In the past, the MTU of libvirt virtual network bridge devices was
implicitly set by setting the MTU of the "dummy tap device" (which was
being added in order to force a particular MAC address from the
bridge). But the dummy tap device was removed in commit ee6c936fbb
(libvirt-6.8.0), and so the mtu setting in the network is ignored.
The solution is, of course, to explicitly set the bridge device MTU
when it is created.
Note that any guest interface with a larger MTU that is attached will
cause the bridge to (temporarily) assume the larger MTU, but it will
revert to the bridge's own MTU when that device is deleted (this is
not due to anything libvirt does; it's just how Linux host bridges
work).

ee6c936fbbo-set-mtu
Actually, I have absolutely 0 idea where that came from :-/. I only
noticed it sitting at the end of the commit log message when I went back
later to rebase.
Hmm. I guess my best guess is that it happened when I clicked my middle
mouse button to paste the commit id into the middle of the comment, but
it pasted somewhere else in that big instructional comment section git
puts at the end of the suggested log text, and there was apparently a
newline in the text that got pasted, so it ended up turning a bit of the
commented text into a non-comment and it got tacked on the end of the
log message.
Or something like that.
This looks like a name of a branch. If you want to preserve the commit
this improves upon, I have been using the following format:
Fixes: ee6c936fbbfb217175326f0201d59cc6727a0678
For some reason I hadn't thought to do that, but it does make sense.
I'll add that before I push.
Thanks!
