Public bug reported:

[Impact]

 * Without the fix the initial size of the image is ~2.2GiB, even for minimized 
images. Changing it to 1GiB allows detecting an increase in packages' installed 
installed size in case they would exceed this smaller limit.
 * Minimized images are generated for Xenial, too, and having this limit in 
effect may help keeping images small.

[Test Case]

 * Generate all minimized an non-minimized images to see that all the
builds still succeed.

[Regression Potential]

 * Since partitions images are expanded to pre-defined sizes at the end of 
image generation this change should not change the resulting image sizes where 
having free space is needed at run-time.
 * The change may break building images, hence the tests in the Test Cases 
section.
 * The change is tested extensively in Bionic
