netplan try: terminal does not echo keypresses after ^C during wait

[Daniel Axtens]

[Impact]
All netplan users.

[Test case]
1) Run 'sudo netplan try' to "try" a new netplan config.
2) Hit Control-C during the timer, to escape to the terminal without applying the configuration.

Validate that text typed on the terminal after hitting Control-C is correctly echoed on screen.

[Regression Potential]
Some non-standard shells may behave differently with the console and expect a specific set of modes. Care has been taken to correctly record and restore the original terminal modes and flags, as well as testing on bash, dash, zsh, in a text VT, etc; but it is possible for non-standard terminals to misunderstand the mode changes and thus incorrectly handle Control-C or other mode changes required by 'netplan try' leading to failure to echo characters, mishandling carriage returns, clears, or invalid color schemes on terminal.

--

If I do netplan try, press ^C during the wait, and try to type, my characters are not echoed to the terminal.

(This is similar to what powersj found in https://asciinema.org/a/176782 but different in that instead of Enter it's ^C that triggers it.)

I think you'll need to trap KeyboardInterrupt exceptions and reset afterwards? or use a try/finally construct to make sure things are reset?

ubuntu@new-man:~$ dpkg -l netplan.io | grep ii
ii netplan.io 0.40.1~18.04.1 amd64 YAML network configuration abstraction for various backends

I have verified that after hitting Control-C when running 'netplan try', all characters typed are again being echoed on the terminal.

The same applies to the other code paths for 'netplan try': timing out or accepting the changes all lead to the terminal behaving normally and echoing characters typed.

Marking verification-done.

Marking verification-done for bionic using 0.40.1~18.04.2.

'netplan try' now correctly restores terminal state again; in Control-C case as well as when config is validated or the timeout expires.

Resetting the tags to verification-done as per the discussion in https://bugs.launchpad.net/netplan/+bug/1770082/comments/95.

The SRU had been rolled back due to a regression that needed to be fixed, but we still consider the previous verification to be valid.
