Title:
  pro livepatch status incorrect when run as normal user

  New
Status in ubuntu-advantage-tools package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-advantage-tools source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-advantage-tools source package in Bionic:

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  pro status shows livepatch as "disabled" when "canonical-livepatch"
  returns an error. This can be misleading. It would be more helpful to
  propagate the error message up to the user through pro status; that is
  what the fix does.

  [ Test Plan ]

  In a multipass VM:
  ```
  # attach to pro
  sudo pro attach
  # hack canonical-livepatch to return an error
  cat > error.sh <<EOF
  #!/bin/sh
  echo "this is a simulated error" >&2
  false
  EOF
  chmod +x error.sh
  sudo rm /snap/bin/canonical-livepatch
  sudo ln -s /home/ubuntu/error.sh /snap/bin/canonical-livepatch
  # check livepatch's status according to pro
  pro status
  ```

  Without the fix, livepatch will show as "disabled".
  With the fix, livepatch will show as "warning", and there will be a notice that says "Error running canonical-livepatch status:  this is a simulated error"

  [ Where problems could occur ]

  Since this changes how the status of livepatch is displayed, then a
  mistake could lead to livepatch's status being incorrect

  [Original Description]

  livepatch shows as disabled when `pro status` is run as a normal user,
  but enabled when run with sudo.

  $ pro status
  SERVICE          ENTITLED  STATUS    DESCRIPTION
  esm-apps         yes       enabled   Expanded Security Maintenance for Applications
  esm-infra        yes       enabled   Expanded Security Maintenance for Infrastructure
  livepatch        yes       disabled  Canonical Livepatch service

  $ sudo pro status
  SERVICE          ENTITLED  STATUS    DESCRIPTION
  esm-apps         yes       enabled   Expanded Security Maintenance for Applications
  esm-infra        yes       enabled   Expanded Security Maintenance for Infrastructure
  livepatch        yes       enabled   Canonical Livepatch service

  This is probably a separate issue, but similarly (with a few numbers I have replaced by <censored>:
  $ canonical-livepatch status
  internal error, please report: running "canonical-livepatch" failed: transient scope could not be started, job /org/freedesktop/systemd1/job/235 finished with result failed

  $ sudo canonical-livepatch status
  last check: 35 minutes ago
  kernel: <censored>
  server check-in: succeeded
  kernel state: ✓ kernel is supported by Canonical.
  patch state: ✓ all applicable livepatch modules inserted
  patch version: <censored>
  tier: stable
