warnings are still printed after user touches file

[Scott Moser]

=== Begin SRU Template ===
[Impact]
Warnings are not suppressed when /var/lib/cloud/instance/warnings/.skip exists.

[Test Case]
if [ ! -f lxc-proposed-snapshot ]; then
  wget https://git.launchpad.net/~smoser/cloud-init/+git/sru-info/plain/bin/lxc-proposed-snapshot
  chmod 755 lxc-proposed-snapshot
fi

for release in xenial yakkety zesty; do
        ref=$release-proposed;
        echo "$release START --------------";
        ./lxc-proposed-snapshot --proposed --install ntp --publish $release $ref;
        lxc init $ref test-$release;
        lxc start test-$release;
        sleep 10
        # Create a warning
        lxc exec test-$release -- sh -c 'd=/var/lib/cloud/instance/warnings/; mkdir -p $d; echo "WARNING WARNING FOO" > "$d/warn-foo"'
        # Validate warning exists
        echo -n "Warning should exist on login: "
        lxc exec test-$release -- bash --login </dev/null 2>&1 | grep WARNING
        lxc exec test-$release -- touch /var/lib/cloud/instance/warnings/.skip
        echo -n "Warning should now be suppressed on login: "
        lxc exec test-$release -- bash --login </dev/null 2>&1 | grep WARNING
        echo "$release DONE --------------";
done

[Regression Potential]
Minimal as the alternative warning suppression file works if you touch /root/.cloud-warnings.skip
