Public bug reported:

networkd-dispatcher upstream only supports reading hooks from a single
directory and defaults to /etc.  We don't want packages to have to ship
more conffiles (with potentially buggy behavior when the package is
removed but not purged) in /etc.

We should change the package to read from /usr/lib instead of from /etc
by default before this goes out the door for 18.04.  We can then later
improve the package to support reading hooks from multiple locations à
la systemd itself, to reintroduce support for local hooks in /etc.  But
we should not ship this in a way that requires packages to integrate by
dropping hooks in /etc.
