curtin-install.log and curtin-install-cfg.yaml are not collected

Installed: 4.5.6-0ubuntu1~22.04.2

When a server was provisioned by MAAS, troubleshooting of the installation process or configuration issue require the logs of the curtin process.

It's usually stored in /root

# ll -h /root/curtin-install*
-r-------- 1 root root 5.4K Mar 28 05:34 /root/curtin-install-cfg.yaml
-r-------- 1 root root 109K Mar 28 05:36 /root/curtin-install.log

But those are not collected by sosreport.

$ sudo sos report -a --all-logs

$ grep curtin sos_logs/sos.log

It's worth noting that those files contain some MAAS token.

A quick update, the PR has now been merged, we're now awaiting SRU, which is likely next version i.e. 4.7.2

If you would like to try it out, the latest snap in latest/edge channel should have this new plugin and allow you to collect the data.
