I agree with this integration. The current wireguard configuration is
actually pretty close to a .network unit, but not exactly aligned.
Arguably, it'd be more in-scope for a .netdev unit (see systemd.nedev(5)
than a .network unit, though.
If we could coax the wireguard config format to use config sections
identical to .netdev units, it'd probably be easier to approach
systemd-networkd about integration. if none of the standard netdev
sections (aside from the descriptive [Netdev] section and the
conditional [Match] section) seem like they should be reusable for
wireguard ([Tunnel] doesn't seem to match exactly), maybe it's worth
defining the sections as [Wireguard] (currently [Interface]) and
[WireguardPeer] (currently [Peer]).
