Bug Description

$ snap prepare-image --classic /var/lib/snapd/assertions/asserts-v0/model/16/generic/generic-classic/active `pwd` --snap core18=latest/stable --snap subiquity=latest/stable/ubuntu-20.04 --arch s390x

is really cool and creates lovely things like:

snaps:
- name: core18
  snap-id: CSO04Jhav2yK0uz97cr0ipQRyqg0qQL6
  channel: latest/stable
  file: core18_1704.snap
- name: subiquity
  snap-id: ba2aj8guta0zSRlT3QM5aJNAUXPlBtf9
  channel: latest/stable/ubuntu-20.04
  classic: true
  contact: https://bugs.launchpad.net/subiquity
  file: subiquity_1704.snap

It has:
- incremental seeding
- validating seeds

However it lacks:
- cohort support
- auto-seeding snapd

But it does extensive validation and prevents broken seeds.

This is great and I'd love to see us move to this from what we are doing. Parallel builds for the ubuntu-cpc project have an absolute requirement for cohort support; so that requirement will need to be driven with snapd.
