/etc/lxc/lxc.conf is global lxc configuration, like a default
lxcpath.  It's not common container configuration.  So yes
/etc/lxc/default.conf is what you'd want to use.  We could
also consider a convention where /etc/lxc/default.conf always
has a lxc.include = /etc/lxc.d or something like that - where
upstream and packages do not touch /etc/lxc.d, and so you can
keep site-local configuration under /etc/lxc.d/.
