I opened bug 1647485 to track the spaces-in-symlink-value problem. Separate from that bug, I have verified the -proposed udev package creates the /dev/disk/by-id/ model/serial string symlinks.

[Test Case] On a system with an NVMe drive, check the /dev/disk/by-id/ directory; with the patch, it will contain link(s) named by the drive serial number. This should be the *only* change in `ls -l /dev/disk/*/*`. On a system without NVMe, verify that `ls -l /dev/disk/*/*` is identical (aside from dates, of course) before and after the upgrade to the -proposed version. [Regression Potential] Errors in udev rules can lead to an unbootable or otherwise completely broken system if they unintentionally break or clobber existing /dev/disks/ symlinks. [Other Info] This patch is already included upstream and in zesty systemd.
