There was a time historically where Launchpad buildd might have relied
on that behaviour, but this shouldn't be the case anymore as it sets
priority manually when building backports.
Meanwhile any other builds using buildd images (e.g. snapcraft)
shouldn't default to backports unless required. (lp: #2009871)

This now matches the cloud images (7c760864fdcb278ca37396f06f5e3f297428d63d)
fixing bootloader updates in the buildd images, but also fixing
compatibility with using devtmpfs for losetup.
Multipass on Mac OS X requires standalone kernel and initrd artifacts
to boot.
Also call update-initramfs on all installed kernels. We only have one
kernel installed, so we don't need to specify an explicit version.
In the buildd image chroot, /etc/resolv.conf is a symbolic link to
a configuration file in the /run directory. A call to truncate will
modify that file, which we should not do. Instead, we want to remove
the symbolic link and replace it with an empty file.
The base image is built with packages from the release pocket; however,
we want the latest from updates and security. Those pockets are already
enabled, we just need to perform an upgrade to pull in the latest
packages.
Instead of injecting an empty resolv.conf with an includes.chroot, we'll
inject it in late with a hook. The empty resolv.conf breaks DNS early in
the build, and causes some binary hooks to fail.
Installing policyrcd-script-zg2 doesn't quite do this because of the way
that live-build installs its own temporary version of policy-rc.d. The
only remotely sensible way I can see to deal with this is to create the
symlink manually.
We don't want the symlink to /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf, and
launchpad-buildd will inject its own version if it doesn't get confused by a
symlink.
