Bug Description

New SRU tracking bug (with exception) for ubuntu-image 1.10 in Focal, Bionic and Xenial + FFe for groovy.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuImageUpdates

[Impact]

ubuntu-image 1.10 fixes some bugs and pays down some technical debt. This release features:
 * A new option to disable console-conf
 * New approach to building UC20 images, making sure image size is correctly taken into consideration (critical)
 * Disabling of some unsupported features when building UC20 models
 * UC20 image build related tweaks and changes

Many of those changes are essential to the proper generation of UC20 models.

[FFe rationale]

The changes in 1.10 are critical for the UC20 project. Even though those are already present in the snap version, so that UC20 developers can proceed with development, out build infrastructure uses the deb version and therefore requires us to get 1.10 released for all the series. From the groovy POV, this release should not pose any actual threat - classic image code-paths changed in a minimal way and besides that, ubuntu-image isn't really a critical-path tool. Many of the related packaging changes have already landed in groovy as distro-patched releases. As mentioned, the snap version was around for quite a while already and no critical issues have been reported.

I would like to request an FFe for ubuntu-image 1.10 in groovy. I will provide a groovy test-build log in the comments.
I will shepherd the package so that it makes its way properly into the release pocket ASAP.

[Test Case]

 * Create an image using the official uc18 amd64 model assertion. Ensure that the resulting image boots to 'press enter to configure' phase.

 * Create an ubuntu-cpc project classic image using a modified amd64 gadget tree [1] and make sure it boots.

 * Create an image using the official uc20 amd64 model assertion. Ensure that the resulting image boots (possible to ping the certification team for help).

[Regression Potential]

 * ubuntu-image may not produce a bootable image

OK, I understand that the impact is limited for groovy since we don't build most of the relevant images there. Feel free to go ahead then, but please do make sure that the ubuntu-cpc images continue to work.

Thank you Laney! The package migrated so tomorrow during the regular daily builds well see if we regressed ubuntu-cpc (raspi server) or not ;)

I was able to successfully build and boot both UC18 and classic images using ubuntu-image 1.10+20.04ubuntu1 on a focal machine. Both images booted fine.
Since focal is used for building UC20 images, I have also successfully built one for the amd64 model and sent it over to certification for testing. They were able to boot and ssh into those, so it seems everything works as expected.

I set up a bionic multipass instance and was able to build a successful UC18, UC20 and classic image using ubuntu-image from bionic-proposed (1.10+18.04ubuntu1). I did a quick boot test of the UC18 one and everything worked as expected (the rest follow the same code paths, direct backports).
