Bug description:
  [SRU]
  =======

  [Impact]

  `google-guest-agent` is a package provided by Google for installation
  within guests that run on Google Compute Engine (GCE). It is part of a
  collection of tools and daemons that ensure that Ubuntu images
  published to GCE run properly on the platform.

  There is a diff between Google's packaged debian distro [0]
  `debian/control` file and what's currently in the ubuntu archive. This
  was originally harmless but now has caused a customer issue.

  Unattended upgrades caused a `google-guest-agent` update (the last
  release was a no-change-rebuild against `-security`) but as there was
  _no_ dependency on `google-compute-engine-oslogin` in the d/control
  file, users became locked out of their instances.

  This is because the creation of the `sudoers` file has moved from the
  PAM module to `authorized keys` (example diffs in jammy here [1][2]).
  It was previously in the PAM account manager stack, but since the
  latest update this `google-guest-agent` version doesn't try to setup
  an account manager stack anymore. In other words the responsibility of
  creating these files has changed, but without the dependency in
  d/control on `google-compute-engine-oslogin` the `sudoers` file is not
  created when a user tries OSlogin.

  
  [Test Case]

  When the new version of this package is uploaded to -proposed, the
  following will happen:

   * an image based on -proposed will be built for GCE and published
   * the GCE team will be asked to validate that the new package addresses the issues it is expected to address, and that the image passes their internal image validation.
   * Each test image will be launched, and we will validate:
   ** the package version(s)
   ** that the correct ssh keys have been imported
   ** that the google specific services are running successfully

  If all the testing indicates that the image containing the new package
  is acceptable, verification will be considered to be done.

  [Additional Information]

  This bug is used to track the release of this new version for all the
  supported suites, as per the policy mentioned here [3].
