It sounds like you've correctly diagnosed the root cause.

The change was to fix an issue in the installer - but the fix rewrites the .service file provided by a different package. I'm not sure if debian packaging handles this in a safe (ordered) way, but assuming it doesn't (as evidenced by the debsums error) then yes - this should probably be fixed.

To fix this packaging issue, livecd-rootfs could instead provide a drop-in config in, for example, /lib/systemd/system/cloud-init.service.d/10-override.conf, which modifies the cloud-init.service's boot order.
