[Bug 1910775] [NEW] netdev does not support the independent flag for vxlan

[Robert Müller]

Public bug reported:

systemd.netdev does support the independet option for various types of
interfaces but not for type vxlan. This options was added in a later
release of systemd (247) with this PR:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/17073.

Since it is currently not possible to create a interface with type vxlan
it would be nice the include this change in the current LTS release
(focal).

"We also need":
1) Description: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS, Release: 20.04
2) systemd:
  Installed: 245.4-4ubuntu3.3
  Candidate: 245.4-4ubuntu3.3
3) systemd support the flag
4) it does not support it

Thanks!
