Bug Description

[Impact]
With the latest unity8-lxc package, users will not be able to log in to the Unity 8 LXC session.

[Test Case]
1. Enable ppa:unity8-desktop-session-team/unity8-preview-lxc.
2. Install unity8-lxc
3. Upgrade the unity8-desktop-session-mir from -proposed.
4. Log in to the Unity 8 LXC session from LightDM.

[Regression potential]
None identified.

*** debdiff is attached to this bug ***

Original Description:

In getting the unity8-lxc packaged and NEWed, we changed the name from unity8-mir-lxc to just unity8-lxc since mir is now implied. As such, the check in lightdm-unity8-session for the $DESKTOP_SESSION needs to test for "unity8-lxc" now.

  * Change the string comparison to "unity8-lxc" since that session has
    been renamed to remove the mir reference. (LP: #1376444)
