Since snaps are not supported on powerpc, it also doesn't make sense to
have an ubuntu-image package that depends on snapd on this architecture.
It is still potentially interesting to have ubuntu-image available on
all archs for the 'ubuntu-image classic' use case, so in terms of
overall direction I think it's better to have ubuntu-image drop its dep
on snapd on powerpc and NOT have livecd-rootfs drop its dep on ubuntu-
image on powerpc, in addition to having snapd available again on powerpc
as a dummy package.
It is very unlikely that we will ever SRU back to xenial any support for
actual ubuntu-image classic images on powerpc, but just in case this
would future-proof it.

Bug description:
livecd-rootfs is used to build our Ubuntu images and it depends on
ubuntu-image. With ubuntu-image 1.7 being published to xenial-updates the diff
shows that the versioned dependency on snapd was bumped to >= 2.38; which is
not satisfiable on powerpc because snapd is not buildable on powerpc with gccgo
(vs golang).
This affects xenial cloud image builds.

added a depends on ubuntu-image but that package is not available on
xenial for powerpc. So powerpc image builds are failing. :(
