[Bug 1952093] [NEW] Seeded snaps broken in the Focal dailies

[Paride Legovini]

Public bug reported:

In the recent focal-live-server-amd64 dailies, e.g. in:

Ubuntu-Server 20.04.3 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20211124)

some snap related errors are printed to the terminal at boot time, and
then subiquity doesn't start. Jumping to tty2 and doing a simple

  systemctl status snapd

shows that snapd complains about the state of the core18 snap, and
indeed /snap/core18/current/ is empty. Reinstalling core18 and
refreshing subiquity from the candidate channel makes it start normally.
This looks like a problem in the snap seeding.

** Affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu)
