v246 is long released. Hence the new scheme should be named v247.
(Interesting, how we pretty systematically for the last releases changed
the scheme only every second release)
This is for 6d36464065. It turns out that this is causing more problems than
expected. Let's retroactively introduce naming scheme v241 to conditionalize
this change.
Follow-up for #12792 and 6d36464065. See also

This is in preparation for later changes. Let's change the documentation of
net.naming-scheme= to also say that it applies to MAC addresses. This commit
doesn't actually implement that though.
The comment in udev-builtin-net_id.c (removed in grandparent commit) showed the
property without the prefix. I assume that was always the intent, because it
doesn't make much sense to concatenate anything to an arbitrary user-specified
field.
I decided to make this a separate man page because it is freakin' long.
This content could equally well go in systemd-udevd.service(8), systemd.link(5),
or a new man page for the net_id builtin.
v2:
- rename to systemd.net-naming-scheme
- add udevadm test-builtin net_id example
