Public bug reported:

In triaging  https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-init/+bug/1854594 i found
that system_info can actively change which distro class is picked:

system_info:
    default_user:
        lock_passwd: true
        name: root
        shell: /bin/bash
    distro: ubuntu

will use distro/__init__.py's create_user() and hence lock_passwd()
methods!

If this is a feature, it should be documented.
If this is a bug, it needs fixing.
