This is related to bug 2036997 except this is for Ubiquity ("legacy" installer) and the other bug is for the new Ubuntu Desktop Installer

What happened?
==============
If a Wifi password is provided during the install, the Wifi network is supposed to be preconfigured with that password after install. It's not working with Ubuntu 23.10.

Steps to reproduce
==================
Use the new Ubuntu Desktop installer to install Ubuntu 23.10 from a computer that has a wifi card
During the install, connect to a password-protected wifi network
After the install, the computer should be automatically connected to that network

Additional context
==================
20230920 Ubuntu Desktop Legacy Mantic ISO

Ubuntu Desktop 23.10 now uses Netplan as the NetworkManager backend.

Unlike with bug 2036997, there is no netplan config file referencing the wifi network.
