something is still not right with this change:

$ ip li add veth1 type veth peer name veth2
$ ip li prop add dev veth1 altname veth1_by_another_name

$ ip li sh dev veth1
15: veth1@veth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,M-DOWN> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state
DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 1e:6e:bc:26:52:f6 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
    altname veth1_by_another_name

$ ip li sh dev veth1_by_another_name
Device "veth1_by_another_name" does not exist.

$ ip li set dev veth1_by_another_name up
Error: argument "veth1_by_another_name" is wrong: "dev" not a valid ifname
