Based on the feedback here on the list we have modified the scope of this proposal
to now be limited to changing the MACAddressPolicy=none for bond/bridge/team devices only.

New summary:

```
The systemd-udev package installs "/usr/lib/systemd/network/99-default.link", which sets Link.MACAddressPolicy=persistent for all software NIC devices. This proposal is to add to the policy so that we use Link.MACAddressPolicy=none for bond/bridge/team devices. 
```
