[Bug 1990072] [NEW] mount helper: improve mount performance on BSDs

 

Public bug reported:

BSD mount(8) doesn't support `-t auto` but it supports a list.
We can compress our current three attempts at mounting CI data into one with:

```
mount -t cd9660,msdosfs,ufs /dev/blah/blubb /run/cloud-init/tmp/blubb
```

This should probably only be done in the case when *no* type has been supplied
otherwise, what we can do is reorder the list to improve probability during Ci-data discovery

** Affects: cloud-init
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
