Public bug reported:

While clearing out the sysv and upstart bits this got inadvertently as
well.

The reason it wasn't realized for so long is that:
a) it is a conffile which was not autoremoved on upgrade, so any upgrade 
continued to work correctly with the old file
b) it is an optional file not needed to be modified for most common use cases, 
the scripts are hardened against the file being missing so they work

Yet if someone "wants" to use one of the features in those files AND is
on a new zesty/artful install the file will be missing.

Fortunately we can add that without too much extra conffile care.
If on a system the file is around already it will be considered as a usual 
conffile on upgrade (and content didn't change) and if a system never had the 
file it will deploy its default content.
