Public bug reported:

The Azure data source (in sources/helpers/azure.py) attempts to read the
current DHCP lease from /var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.eth0.leases, but that
path does not exist on, for example, RHEL/Fedora/CentOS environments
(which appear to use /var/lib/dhclient/dhclient--eth0.lease).

The location of the lease file should probably be part of the Distro
object.

A secondary problem is that the WALinuxAgentShim class does not have any
access to the Distro object, so that code needs some fiddling to
implement this fix.
