Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Commit 245f7772bdb743547e4d2f7df2475afc0eb5ec1e aborts the build when a snap still depends on core (16.04 runtime).
  That's fine for Ubuntu but the CPC team builds images which still depend on core (that will be fixed soon). So currently those CPC builds are failing.
  Adding an option to allow those builds will fix the problem.

  [Test Plan]
  The bug can be reproduced with:

  $ ./scripts/ubuntu-bartender/ubuntu-bartender --hook-extras-dir
  ~/devel/canonical/cloudware/cpc_packaging.extra --livecd-rootfs-branch
  ubuntu/focal --livecd-rootfs-dir ~/devel/livecd-rootfs/ -- --series
  focal --project ubuntu-cpc --image-target ec2-anbox

  So getting this command passing validated that the bug is fixed

  [Where problems could occur]
  Other builds could get broken due to this change but it's unlikely because the change is relatively small and the change is tested.
