trusty verification, test case (3)

Both start from fresh trusty minimal with no u-a-t installed

a) u-a-t updates -> enable esm -> upgrade proposed
b) u-a-t proposed -> attach

The u-a-t package from updates that was used is: 10ubuntu0.14.04.4
The u-a-t package from proposed that was used is: 19.6~ubuntu14.04.2

Since (a) didn't run ua attach, but just upgraded to the proposed
package, the credentials were not migrated to the new bearer token. ESM
keeps working without this step, but "ua status" will say the machine is
unattached. This is expected and explained in the last paragraph of the
"[Other Info]" section in this SRU bug.

Only an "ua attach" command will rewrite the esm pockets in the
sources.list snippet to include the "infra" word. The old names, without
"infra", will not be removed from the ESM server for trusty, so having
step (a) keep using the old names isn't a problem.

(b) didn't go through trusty-updates, therefore that package isn't
cached.

(a) is still using the trusty pockets without the "infra" name, and (b),
because it ran an "ua attach", that also runs "apt update", therefore
the infra pockets are shown in apt's lists/ directory.

Since (b) ran "ua attach", that fully migrated that setup to the new
client, which is then showing content in its data directory at /var/lib
/ubuntu-advantage/. The (a) case did not run attach.

I declare test case (3) as having succeeded.
