Bug Description

Multiple reports received for people trying to upgrade from Ubuntu 20.04 to Ubuntu 20.10 using `do-release-upgrade` on WSL failed silently. After digging, it is found that in DistUpgradeQuirks.py, DistUpgradeQuirks._checkStoreConnectivity won't check for the message thrown by `snap debug connectivity` which is complaining about the inability of connecting to `snapd` service:
`
> error: cannot communicate with server: Get "http://localhost/v2/debug?aspect=connectivity": dial unix /run/snapd.socket: connect: no such file or directory

This bug should affect all versions of packages especially 20.04 or higher (1:20.04.32).
