Title:
  Update the agent to upstream tag 20240213.00

Status in google-guest-agent package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  `google-guest-agent` is a package provided by Google for installation
  within guests that run on the Google Compute Engine (GCE). It is part
  of a collection of tools and daemons that ensure that Ubuntu images
  published to GCE run properly on the platform.

  Google have updated to release 20240213.00 and have asked us to do the
  same. Most importantly, this update removes the dependency on dhclient
  [0] (whose support is formally ending as of noble [1])

  [Test Case]

  When the new version of this package is uploaded to -proposed, the
  following will happen:

   * an image based on -proposed will be built for GCE and published
   * the GCE team will be asked to validate that the new package addresses the issues it is expected to address, and that the image passes their internal image validation.
   * Each test image will be launched, and we will validate:
   ** the package version(s)
   ** that the correct ssh keys have been imported
   ** that the google specific services are running successfully

  If all the testing indicates that the image containing the new package
  is acceptable, verification will be considered to be done.
