Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Atari partition tables have very broad specifications, and can spontaneously show up on uncleared disks with "garbage" data. There have been reports of misinterpreted AHDI partition tables before (see [0] and [1]), usually as an unintended side-effect of using non-zeroed disks. Users of this specific partition scheme are unlikely to be on AWS instances, so we should disable them.

  [0] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-block/1467736712-11825-1-git-send-email-krisman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
  [1] https://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-atari/1995/11/19/0001.html

  [Test Case]
  Ensure that CONFIG_ATARI_PARTITION is not set in /boot/config-$(uname -r)

  [Fix]
  Unset CONFIG_ATARI_PARTITION in debian.aws/config/config.common.ubuntu

  [Regression Potential]
  There could be unexpected dependencies on Atari partitions that are impacted by this change. Considering Atari hardware hasn't been produced in a long time, and is unlikely to be used in AWS instances, the regression potential should be very low.
