Unit Status Missing Life Field

[Stone Preston]

unit status does not seem to report life information like other entities do. The unit status struct defined here: https://github.com/juju/juju/blob/82265be153c73c1aa549c7ad2ac6cda3f5712f92/rpc/params/status.go#L210 has a DetailedStatus member that should contain a life field. However, when accessing the life field of such a struct, it is empty.

Also, the status output provided by the juju CLI does not show life when displaying unit status as shown in this status output: https://pastebin.canonical.com/p/8GndX8QVB8/

Hi,

I have looked a bit into this for you. `juju status` not displaying life is an intentional feature when life is 'alive', so this works as intended

However, the fact that the command `juju show-x` inconsistently show the life value (application, machine, unit, etc. don't but model, etc. do) needs to be addressed
