[Bug 1576692] [NEW] fully support package installation in systemd

[Scott Moser]

Public bug reported:

in cloud-init users can install packages via cloud-config:
#cloud-config
packages: [apache2]

Due to some intricacies of systemd and service installation that doesn't work all that well.
We fixed the issue for simple services that do not have any dependencies on other services, or at least don't check those dependencies well under bug 1575572.

We'd like to have a way to fully support this in cloud-init.
