    - azure:
      + bump IMDS API version to support Azure published images
    - cli:
      + collect-logs command that creates a tar file with debug-relevant logs
        and status info (GH: #463)
      + clean locks on exceptions more thoroughly to avoid false "Operation in
        progress" status messages
      + retain past service state after detach
      + shows better error message when a port value in a proxy is invalid
    - non-unicode locale support:
      + remove unicode-only characters from help file
      + don't print unicode-only characters in ua fix if non-utf8 locale
        (GH: #1463)
    - logrotate:
      + add logrotate functionality for ubuntu-advantage-timer.log.
      + Fix root:root logrotate permissions.
    - ua-timer.timer:
      + introduce a single systemd timer to handle ua recurring jobs
      + timer runs every 2 hours to support most frequent timer job
      + recurring job intervals are configurable in uaclient.conf
      + individual jobs are disabled if their interval is set to 0
      - status job:
        + update ua status every 12 hours
      - messaging job:
        + update APT/MOTD ESM messaging every 6 hours
      - metering job:
        + disabled until infrastructure is ready
        + for attached machines only, periodically update contract server with
          status information for proper contract metering
    - ua-license-check.timer:
      + only runs on LTS GCP instances that are not attached
      + runs every 5 minutes to check if gcp instance has license required to

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  This bug impacts users which:
  - Do not have the '/usr/bin/cloud-id' command in their system,
  - Do have the '/var/lib/cloud/data/result.json' file in their system, and
  - Have a non-standard (by cloud-init definitions) content in the '/var/lib/cloud/data/result.json' file.

  This is an unusual situation, given that the presence of the
  'result.json' file with the absence of the 'cloud-id' command is
  observed on official Trusty images, but from Xenial onwards 'cloud-id'
  should be there. Even in the case where the command is not there, the
  file generated by cloud-init will have the required information.

  Since we are doing the SRU process for Xenial onwards, the solution for those problems is to rely only on cloud-id when trying to determine the cloud type, and assuming not on cloud when the command is not present or if it fails.
  https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-advantage-client/commit/f6fbcee792cf42cc67e3ced02815b7d552dee19f

  [Test Case]
  To reproduce:
  With ubuntu-advantage-tools 27.2 installed, in an Ubuntu machine:
  - Make sure cloud-id is not there:
    $ sudo mv /usr/bin/cloud-id /usr/bin/cloud-id.old
  - Make sure to have the result.json file with non-standard (empty, for instance) content:
    $ sudo mv /var/lib/cloud/data/result.json /var/lib/cloud/data/result.json.old (if the file exists)
    $ sudo touch /var/lib/cloud/data/result.json
  - Try to attach a token using "ua attach"
  - Verify that it fails

  To verify the fix:
  Repeat the above process using ubuntu-advantage tools 27.3, and verify that the attach operation succeeds.

  [Regression Potential]
  When running on a non-cloud system, this fix brings no impact, as we expect cloud-id to be absent and we are not running on cloud.

  When running on a specific cloud, this fix brings the scenario where
  we should detect the cloud and are unable to, due to problems with
  cloud-init. This is minor though, given that if cloud-init didn't run
  properly, the instance has more problems than this one. Besides that,
  considering no-cloud when not in aws/azure/gcp has no impact on UA at
  all, and those three providers have images with cloud-id working
  properly.

  No official Ubuntu image should be affected by this change.

  [Discussion]
  As stated above, this is an unusual situation, which led to an improvement to the cloud detection in UA.

  [Original Description]
