You' re right. It's provided by isc-dhcp-client. Can' t recall how I
ended up with reporting this against systemd 4 years ago.

** Package changed: systemd (Ubuntu) => isc-dhcp (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: isc-dhcp (Ubuntu)
       Status: Invalid => New

Title:
  /etc/dhcp/dhclient-enter-hooks.d/resolved should not run in non-root
  network namespaces

Status in isc-dhcp package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Running dhclient in a (non-root) network namespace on a system with
  systemd enabled fails because the hook installed by the systemd
  package updates the DNS configuration of the core/root namespace,
  instead of simply the /etc/resolv.conf file of that particular network
  namespace.

  ("ip netns add <name>" nicely links /etc/resolv.conf in that namespace
  to /etc/netns/<name>/resolv.conf if it exists.)

  The following patch ensures that this script no longer misbehaves for
  this scenario:
