Title:
  'apt-get update' should be configurable as part of testbed setup

Status in autopkgtest package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  It would be useful to add a flag to automatically allow 'apt-get
  update' to be run during testbed setup.

  Currently this can be done using --setup-commands option:
  'mount -o remount,rw /; apt-get update; mount -o remount,ro /'

  But it would be much easier to have a flag to allow this to be
  configured as part of the setup procedure.

  This step is required to ensure device package lists don't became out
  of sync with archive.
