Title:
  Support DuplicateAddressDetection by default

Status in netplan:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  netplan & networkd only use systemd-networkd's default of
  DuplicateAddressDetection=ipv6, thus not checking for IPv4 conflicts.

  From what I know RedHat based systems on the other hand use the arping
  tool during ifup in their ifcfg system (ARPCHECK=yes by default) to
  check for IP conflicts. In order to reach a similar result in Ubuntu,
  we would need to place an override configuration snippet in
  /etc/systemd/network/10-netplan-eth0.network.d/override.conf,
  specifying an [Address] section and corresponding
  DuplicateAddressDetection=both setting for each IP address [0].

  This is probably even something that netplan should be doing by
  default, but it is not currently.
