[Bug 836846] [NEW] apport package hook should collect info in /var/log/dist-upgrade

[Brian Murray]

Public bug reported:

In the event that one encounters a non-fatal error when performing a
distribution upgrade when using update-manager it'd be quite useful if
update-manager were to add the log files in /var/log/dist-upgrade for
the reporter than having them add each one manually.

Additionally, by doing this for the reporter we can ensure that the
attachments are named the same thereby making automated bug triage much
simpler.
