[Bug 2062622] [NEW] autopkgtest broken on deb822 only testbeds

[Skia]

Public bug reported:

Running apt-clone autopkgtest on a deb822-only such as a fresh Noble image breaks the tests, because they test for the presence of `/etc/apt/sources.list` on the system they run (not the embedded mocked test data).
Checking for another file would fix this, or removing the "real system" test, since this is heavily dependent on the testbed, and thus quite brittle.

Here is an example of broken run:

noble/noble/arm64/a/apt-clone/20240419_132003_66310@/log.gz
