anymore.

Title:
zsys causes apt install to output a confusing message
Status in zsys package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in zsys source package in Focal:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
* When Zsys is installed, an apt install includes the following message in
its output:
INFO Updating GRUB menu
There's no information that explains why this is being done, so the first
time I encountered this it was quite concerning.
* Replace the pre and post-apt run message with the following:
<apt download content>
Requesting to save current system state
Successfully saved as "autozsys_ttmh2w"
...
ZSys is adding automatic system snapshot to GRUB menu
[Test Case]
1. Install new ZSys version
2. Run apt upgrade (with content to be installed)
3. Check that the above messages are printed (without INFO)
4. Manual state save message is also enhanced for coherence:
$ zsysctl state save --system
ZSys is adding automatic system snapshot to GRUB menu
Successfully saved as "autozsys_l5247e"
[Regression Potential]
* We changed the print message process to not have any INFO printed. However,
those were only used for this specific use case.
* This is only printed to command line users, and the change of strings don’t
happen any GUI functionality. ZSys is labelled as experimental and not fully
translated, so the change to non english locale has a minimal impact.
