The if-up-down to trigger the DHCP request causes problems. It's better
to directly ask systemd-networkd to issue the request. It seems that
one needs to use "reconfigure" instead of "forcerenew", so I went with
only that instead of somehow trying to see if "forcerenew" has an
effect.

How to use

For this comment #1950 (comment)

Testing done

Used flatcar-update -P … -E … to switch to the built image, and checked that waagent triggers the DHCP renewal:

May 03 14:06:56 newname systemd-hostnamed[2482]: Hostname set to <newname> (static)
May 03 14:06:56 newname systemd-resolved[1538]: System hostname changed to 'newname'.
May 03 14:06:56 newname sudo[2479]: pam_unix(sudo:session): session closed for user root

May 03 14:07:06 newname systemd-networkd[1736]: eth0: DHCP lease lost

There is no Link DOWN, Lost carrier anymore for eth0 and enP52305s1.

This reverts commit 9556c7f
because waagent looks for internal hostname changes and wants to
propagate them to the Azure VM properties by issuing a new DHCP request.
