/usr/share/apport/apport-gtk:KeyError:/usr/share/apport/apport-

Bug description:
[Impact]
* The Ubuntu Error Tracker has been receiving reports about a problem regarding apport. This problem was most recently seen with package version 2.20.10-0ubuntu5, the problem page at https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/64f362ed27e5f6069d78b02c2cbca5c09fcc19ee
* The theory is that those crashes are trigger by reports generated (but not send) pre apport 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.3. They don't hafe thus the "remember" key, and thus, the new apport, when reporting, is crashing.
* We now ignore if the key isn't present and just consider the answer as "false", which is a no-op.
[Test Case]
* Install apport 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.1
* Generate a crash but don't report it.
* Upgrade to apport apport 2.20.9-0ubuntu7.3
* Report this crash.
-> No apport crash should be triggered
[Regression Potential]
* We are doing a python2 compatible try/except to ignore the KeyError which was the regression. It doesn't seem it can trigger other regressions.
