[Bug 1563951] [NEW] Cloud-init does not initialize systemd machine id

[Greg Fefelov]

Public bug reported:

Systemd uses /etc/machine-id file to uniquely identify the machine and
to provide machine ID to D-Bus. This file is generated with `systemd-
machine-id-setup` command that should be run on system installation (or
at least when a system is provisioned). However, cloud-init does not do
this.

As far as I can see, all Wily Werewolf VMs provisioned in EC2 have the
same machine-id ff1bed6402c14c57ac03a074cdb7479e.
