Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * Due to how `disk-image` series file in `ubuntu-cpc` is structured,
  it builds BIOS and UEFI images at the same time. However, certain
  images (e.g., GCE images) require only UEFI image to be built, BIOS
  image is being simply discarded. This results in longer build times.

  [Test Plan]

   * Build any image that depends on `disk-image` (e.g. a GCE image) with `livefs-build` or `ubuntu-bartender`
   * Read build logs and observe what build artifacts are produced: `disk.ext4` is the BIOS image and `disk-uefi.ext4` is the UEFI image

  [Where problems could occur]

   * Due to changes in the `disk-images` series file the order in which
  BIOS and UEFI image are built has changed, if there's something
  sensitive to the order in which those artifacts are built it might
  break

  [Other Info]
   
   * CPC images will be switched from `disk-image` to `disk-image-uefi` once the update is released
