[Bug 1389168] [NEW] upgrade cancelled when wifi interrupted for a second

[Andreas E.]

Public bug reported:

Modern devices only obtain their networking via wifi. When the wifi is
for a moment interrupted and finds the wifi network again, websites load
again, however ubuntu-release-upgrader still cancels the complete
upgrade instead of offering to "resume downloads" or "cancel". After
having downloaded over 2500 MB on a quotaed network, this is
intolerable.
