This issue is not considered solved after multiple steps on multiple
fronts to address the problem:

(1) Snapd team (Andrew Phelps) created API to allow pre-seeding:
 - https://github.com/canonical/snapd/pull/16395
 - https://github.com/canonical/snapd/pull/16403

(2) Installer team (Olivier Gayot) implemented API to enable preseeding on the 
installer side.
 -  https://github.com/canonical/subiquity/pull/2288

(3) Desktop team (Sergio Costas):
 - Established that font-cache does not work via the content interface (the 
data is not shared) and there is not quick fix for that (needs in depth 
investigation).
 - Discovered hard-coded delay of 2 seconds inside fc-cache which he removed 
and verified does not breakages: 
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/fontconfig/fontconfig/-/merge_requests/494
 - Prepared two patches for SDKs:
   - https://github.com/ubuntu/gnome-sdk/pull/334
   - https://github.com/ubuntu/gnome-sdk/pull/335


Together this reduced the seeding time to be acceptable. Considering this issue 
solved.
