[Bug 1800862] [NEW] Doesn't communicate about applied livepatch on start

[Sebastien Bacher]

Public bug reported:

The update-notifier livepatch code seems to only react to event, but
since it's slow to start (it's in the graphical session and delayed by
60s) it's likely that livepatch refresh is done before update-notifier
is ready and such the user feedback is never send.

We should probably change update-notifier to do send the notification on
start if there is any applied change (it's going to nag at every login
but that's somewhat a feature/better, since it reassure to the user that
he has those fixes in place)

Wdyt?
