The proposal to merge ~smoser/cloud-init:bug/1693361-apt-get-locks into cloud-init:master has been updated.

Commit Message changed to:

systemd: make cloud-final.service run before apt daily services.

This is really just a work around for apt.  The solution here is to cause
cloud-init-final.service to run Before the processes that run daily and may
cause a lock on the apt database.

apt-daily-upgrade.service contains 'After=apt-daily.service'.
Per systemd man page:
  Timer units automatically gain a Before= dependency on the service
  they are supposed to activate.

Thus following order is enforced, so we can just be 'Before' the first.
   apt-daily.timer
   apt-daily.service
   apt-daily-upgrade.timer
   apt-daily-upgrade.service

LP: #1693361
