Title:
  Ephemeral deployment instance provides no console cue

Status in cloud-init:
  Expired
Status in MAAS:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Just upgraded to MAAS 2.6a1, noticed that a server in my MAAS has a
  different console behaviour on deployment. Previously, I would see the
  deployment logs spraying across the console, which was not pretty but
  it gave a cue towards progress and potentially issues if it got stuck.

  With 2.6a1 we seem to present only a login screen. That's more
  tasteful, but it leaves an odd impression. At first I thought the
  deployment was failing (it came up to a login screen too fast) but
  then I figured out that was the login screen to the ephemeral
  instance.

  It would be better if the ephemeral instance presented a login screen
  along these lines:

  
  Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS <hostname> tty1

  MAAS installation of <image-name> in progress for <maas-user>,
  logs will be available in the MAAS machine overview post-install.
  <maas-user> can SSH to ubuntu@<hostname> during deployment.

  <hostname> login:
