Bug description:
  [Impact]
  This is for the release of the latest upstream version of the Ubuntu Pro Client, which contains several bugfixes and new features that are desirable on all releases. 28 has several notable features.

  The most notable changes are:
   - ua-timer.timer will now only run when attached
   - we're adding code that introduces the concept of service "variants", to be activated by the resource definition on the backend, beginning with realtime-kernel
   - new criteria for "yes-kernel-livepatches-applied" value of `pro system reboot-required`
     livepatch status must be either "applied" or "nothing-to-apply" and
     livepatch support status must say "supported"
   - polish to the output of `pro security-status`
   - new api functions for is_attached and enabled_services
   - support for azure upgrade-in-place on-boot
   - less network calls when not necessary

  See the changelog entry below for a full list of changes and bugs.

  [Test Case]
  The following development and SRU process was followed:
  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuAdvantageToolsUpdates

  The ubuntu-advantage-tools team will be in charge of attaching the
  artifacts and console output of the appropriate run to the bug.
  ubuntu-advantage-tools team members will not mark ‘verification-done’
  until this has happened.

  [Regression Potential]
  This release includes a refactors of our reboot-cmds systemd service. If the refactor causes the reboot-cmds script to fail, then users who are upgrading from trusty to xenial may not get livepatch automatically enabled, and some users may end up with some unnecessary package holds on fips packages.

  The timer now doesn't run all the time. If there was a mistake here,
  it may not be properly started on attach, which could interfere with
  contract metering.

  Previous versions of u-a-t attempted to load a `uaclient.conf` if it
  existed in the current working directory where the cli was called.
  This version removes that functionality. If users had workflows that
  depended on that, then they will break.

  More generally, there are several new features and lots of code
  changed. We could have inadvertently introduced new failure cases in
  any of this.
