Public bug reported:

As part of the fix for bug 1918303 in [0], we stopped emitting randomly-
generated passwords to /var/log/cloud-init-output.log.  This
functionality _is_ used by some cloud-init consumers, most notably
subiquity.

We should reintroduce saving these passwords somewhere in the instance,
securely, so that these use cases are not regressed.
