Bug Description

When doing 'do-release-upgrade' on a headless machine via ssh, a warning is issued with instructions on how to access a secondary SSH instance that is started. Since the upgrade process is started within `screen`, which is fantastic!, it would be beneficial to provide instructions to the user on how to connect to that screen should the terminal session get dropped.

It's a little thing, and an enhancement not a bug, but would improve the user experience and lessen anxiety when it looks like something has gone terribly wrong.
