[Bug 1761644] [NEW] Delete the password for the live session on all flavors

Public bug reported:

Right now, only when gdm3 is installed is a systemd unit created to run
passwd -d. This is preferable over having a blank password because it
provides consistency between Desktop and flavors, and it makes it
quicker to use a tty (and less confusing for people who get stuck
thinking there's a password they don't know).
