Title:
  /var/lib/extrausers is wrong in all-snap

Status in Snappy Launcher:
  Fix Released
Status in snap-confine package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in snap-confine source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  On an all-snap system the /var/lib/extrausers directory contains
  additional system users that augment the read-only database in /etc/.

  Snap-confine contains a quirk system that is meant to run only on
  classic systems. The quirk system constructs an artificial copy of
  /var/lib/ that contains data from the core snap as well as arbitrary
  data from the classic filesystem (e.g. the /var/lib/lxd directory).

  The code should not run on an all-snap system because it makes no
  sense and because it actually collides with the already correctly set
  up /var/lib/extrausers.
