I am against falling back to reporting the stable release if the
distribution data is outdated, because it is just a guess and this guess
could be wrong.

Application that use distro-info should decide what to do in case of
outdated distribution data. cloud-sandbox should fall back to use stable
(and then to use the latest supported one):

release="$(ubuntu-distro-info --devel || ubuntu-distro-info --stable ||
ubuntu-distro-info --supported | tail -n 1) daily"
