New SRU tracking bug (with exception) for ubuntu-image 1.7 in Disco, Cosmic, Bionic and Xenial.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuImageUpdates

[Impact]

ubuntu-image 1.7 fixes some bugs and pay down some technical debt. Besides test-fixes and some improvements regarding schema parsing, this version also adds support for the new --snap syntax (replacing the now-deprecated --extra-snaps argument).

[Test Case]

Create an image using the official amd64 model assertion. Ensure that the resulting image boots to 'press enter to configure' phase. Create an ubuntu-cpc project classic image using a modified amd64 gadget tree [1] and make sure it boots.

[Regression Potential]

* ubuntu-image may not produce a bootable image
* Old uses of the deprecated --extra-snaps commandline arguments might not work
