I found that simply editing /etc/hostname and rebooting didn't work, because cloud-init resets the hostname. But if I create the instance with a cloud-init script to set the hostname to the FQDN, and then reboot the instance after creation, /etc/hostname contains the FQDN and hostname returns the FQDN.
