Public bug reported:

In resolute, on *some* Pi platforms (but not all), wlan0 becomes wld0.
However, the cloud-init seed present on the boot partition needs a
consistent naming scheme given the image works with many supported
revisions of Pi (and further, that rpi-imager's customization of the
network-config also needs to know in advance what the interface name
will be).

Extend the eth0 hack (ensuring the built-in ethernet port is always
eth0) to the wlan0 device.

** Affects: ubuntu-raspi-settings (Ubuntu)
