Public bug reported:

Users commonly have issues with cloud-init, and ask questions like did it run.
Tools often want to know if cloud-init finished and if so , with what status.

This FFE is to add a feature that covers those two topics.

cloud-init will now update /var/lib/cloud/data/status.json and
/var/lib/cloud/data/result.json .

It will also update symlinks to those files from /run/cloud-init  to
ensure that these are not stale on boot.

Then, consumers can wait for 'result.json' to appear or can read
status.json at almost any point in boot.
