Title:
  networkd-dispatcher should read from /usr/lib, not /etc

Status in networkd-dispatcher package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in networkd-dispatcher source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  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.
