Public bug reported:
On d-i and ubiquity installer images, the user can always switch VTs to
get a prompt that reads (paraphrased from memory): "Press ENTER to get a
shell". We should deliver the same experience on subiquity images.
Currently, when booting a subiquity image, changing VTs gets me an
additional instance of subiquity running. This does not help me for
debugging the one I've already got running. ;)
If modifying subiquity to not take over >1 VT means that we get a getty,
and we have some l/p info that we can use to log in as root, that is a
reasonable first pass on this to unblock debugging of running images.
But ultimately the experience should be 'press enter'.
