releasing package livecd-rootfs version 24.04.76

The ubuntu-core-installer image is an installer that installs ubuntu
core. The environment the installer runs in is similar to the server
installer but it has a source catalog entry that points to the model
created in ubuntu-core-installer/hooks/05-prepare-image.binary, which
subiquity knows how to install.
