[Bug 1966197] [NEW] Cleaning netplans after removing wireguard interface

[Rahul]

Public bug reported:

Hi, I am working on Ubuntu server 20.04 with network manager snap and
wireguard.

I can bring up wireguard interface using:

sudo wg-quick up <conf file>

I can also bring it down with

wg-quick down <conf file>

The netplan.io then, creates a yaml in /etc/netplan

When this inerface is deleted, this netplan is not removed.

Also, when i reboot, when i run:

sudo wg-quick up <conf file>

the netplan creates a new yaml file with a different uuid, instead of
recogonising it already exists.

Due to this the netplan in /etc/netplan folder piles up.

How can I fix this issue?
