FFe: Replace default wallpaper in Groovy

[Rhys Davies]

Changing the default wallpaper from the existing Groovy Gorilla illustration to the one featuring Raspberry Pi tinted sunglasses.

For the default desktop wallpaper we'll need to revert https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-settings/20.10.2 and https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-wallpapers/20.10.2-0ubuntu1 and update the warty-final-ubuntu.png and also include the with the plain sunglasses mascot wallpaper as an option.

The background wallpaper for Ubiquity slideshow should also be changed to use the version featuring the mascot wearing Raspberry Pi tinted sunglasses.

The benefit is to pay homage to the work various teams have been doing with the Raspberry Pi foundation and to their product. It's a way to signal our commitment to making their platform great and deepen our relationship with the Pi foundation.

Any additional information which would be helpful in considering the decision

The concerns people have are of product placement and forcing something onto peoples machines. There are several arguments against this, the option to change to the default easily, that there is no direct link to Raspberry Pi anything and its quite subtle. But ultimately the reason is we want to make a splash with the Raspberry Pi and arm in general and this is a very good way to do it.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

This really feels late for such a user-visible change. We are now after final freeze and long after user interface freeze - we would really prefer not to have such changes done basically a weekend away from release week.

As there was no further discussion and we already have (hopefully) final release candidates for 20.10, marking as 'Won't Fix' for the wallpaper.
