Title:
  systemd-resolved fails to start in a container

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  This is a regression from 239-7ubuntu15 to 240-5ubuntu1.

  Steps to reproduce:

  lxc launch ubuntu-daily:disco rbasak-resolv
  lxc exec rbasak-resolv bash
  systemctl status systemd-resolved  # observe running
  echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ disco-proposed main universe multiverse restricted" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
  apt update
  # Update to 240-5ubuntu1 from proposed
  apt install systemd libsystemd0 systemd-sysv libnss-systemd libpam-systemd
  reboot
  lxc exec rbasak-resolv bash
  systemctl status systemd-resolved  # observe failed

  ● systemd-resolved.service - Network Name Resolution
     Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/systemd-resolved.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

  This causes /etc/resolv.conf to point to a file that isn't created, so
  all name resolution fails. As far as I can determine, landing this in
  the release pocket would cause all default LXD containers to stop
  working.

  In my case it breaks "autopkgtest -U --apt-pocket=proposed ... -- lxd
  ubuntu-daily:disco"

  Tagging block-proposed as migration would regress the release pocket,
  and marking Critical as it breaks the system (presumably only in a
  container though, and it is only in proposed currently).
