Bug Description
Doing a test image build with ubuntu-image, and create_chroot and install_packages steps are slower than they could be, because it's running dpkg without libeatmydata.

Image builds should always run under libeatmydata. dpkg's sync-heavy unpacking process is essential for running systems, but when building images it's just overhead.
