Public bug reported:

cc_final_message calls util.write_file, which calls ensure_dir; if
nothing has caused the symlink to be created, then this means that
/var/lib/cloud/instance will be a directory, and future boots will fail
because they fail to remove it (because it's a directory, so can't just
be `rm`d.)

(We're seeing this in bug 1883661; I don't think it's the root cause,
hence this separate bug.)
