[Bug 1445625] [NEW] Change the default RSA generation from 2048 to 4096

[Joey Stanford]

Public bug reported:

For security purposes, the Ubuntu Distro should consider changing the
default RSA generation from 2048 to 4096. This is a could be a somewhat
disruptive change (e.g. accessing older Cisco devices may not work).  We
should still try to consider this and target this for 16.04.
