MAAS images were broken because cloud-init could not handle the new
behavior. This is not the MAAS team's responsibility to fix, the Server
Team has been working on it with Dimitri; and having our MAAS images broken
was an unacceptable regression that was blocking kernel testing.

See the other linked bug, LP: #1890803, for details. If the
cloud-initramfs-tools change has landed, then the livecd-rootfs revert can
be reverted again.
