The most recent upload contains a new quirk for an unrelated bug, and
fixes for another unrelated bug. The previous verification done with
1:24.04.21 stands.

Bug description:
  [Analysis]
  usrmerge was not essential on 22.04 and systems that upgraded to it may not have been converted, as it was only Recommended.

  We need to add quirks to ubuntu-release-upgrader to convert systems
  that are not yet merged by first installing the usrmerge package.

  [Test Plan]

  1. Bootstrap an unmerged-/usr jammy rootfs:

  $ debootstrap --exclude=usrmerge --no-merged-usr jammy-unmerged-usr/

  2. Start systemd-nspawn with this rootfs and add a new user:

  $ systemd-nspawn -D jammy-unmerged-user

  ...

  # adduser ubuntu
  # usermod -aG sudo ubuntu

  3. Then boot as a container:

  $ systemd-nspawn --boot -D jammy-unmerged-usr/

  4. Attempt an upgrade. With the patch in place, the upgrade should be
  stopped with a message explaining that the system is not /usr-merged.

  $ do-release-upgrade -d

  5. After that, install usrmerge, and try the upgrade again. It should
  proceed this time.

  $ apt install -y usrmerge
  $ do-release-upgrade -d

  [Where problems could occur]

  This patch checks that /bin, /sbin, and /lib are symlinks to their
  respective locations in /usr. Typos in the patch could cause problems.
  If a bug were to arise, either (a) upgrades would be prevented
  unnecessarily, or (b) it would proceed when it should not, and users
  would hit this bug anyways.
