Bug Description

The file /etc/X11/Xsession.d/20x11-common_process-args is missing the definition of the function has_option() in the 21.04 distribution. As a result, when lightdm starts X11, even though use-ssh-agent is specified in Xsession.options, the test fails and so the agent is not started.

This is in the context of using the i3 window manager, which shouldn't matter except that maybe gnome does stuff on its own that makes the problem not apparent there.
