[Bug 1177432] Re: Enable backports in cloud-init archive template

[Stéphane Graber]

Just ran into this issue again today when testing the LXD backport.

This is pretty annoying as it's causing a completely different user
experience for cloud users compared to regular distro users.

Also, at least in trusty, apt-add-repository doesn't know how to add
backports, so a user will need to manually update /etc/apt/sources.list
and then run apt-get update which makes installing backports
significantly harder than it should be.
