Title:
  Set the default delay to 0

Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Nowadays we get frequent feedback from desktop user being confused by
  plymouth not showing or showing for a (few) seconds.

  Plymouth has a default timeout of 5 seconds before being displayed,
  the idea was to not display it at all rather than for a few seconds.
  In practice most configurations take 10 seconds or longer to boot and
  it seems it's quite common with current market configurations&Ubuntu
  versions to be in the 7-8 seconds which doesn't play nicely with the 5
  seconds delay and make that "plymouth show for one second result"

  That's something upstream discussed/considered changing in
  https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/plymouth/plymouth/issues/64 before
  decided to go directly to the new design of keeping the bios/vendor
  logo on screen and avoiding transition this way. The outcome of the
  discussion was that it would probably make sense to change the default
  to 0 second. I proposed doing that in disco (and perhaps backport that
  to cosmic/bionic then). WDYT?
