Otherwise on a system without support for `snap routine console-conf-start`, console-conf will never actually run.
Thanks to @xnox for the suggestion.

After the user has pressed enter to being using console-conf, we should invoke
the snapd routine for console-conf, which currently does the following:
* Unconditionally delays refreshes for 20 minutes from when first invoked.
* Blocks waiting for all pending refreshes to complete, including if those
involve a reboot.
This is the first step towards a more integrated user story where console-conf
is a part of the first-boot process, and at least will minimize user confusion
where console-conf proceeds asking about network configuration and then just
hangs when snapd starts a refresh as soon as network is available.
The snap routine console-conf-start command was merged to snapd with
https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/9418 and will be first available in snapd
2.48.

Display the snapd journal while the system installs. This will
give us important clues what might go wrong during a install
and also gives the user some sense of progress.
For post-beta we need to think if we really want to display this
level of detail. OTOH we don't expect people to watch the console
during firstboot yet and if that will happen we need to also tweak
a bunch more (like kernel messages, systemd messages etc).
Once console-conf is started for recovery chooser, exit early when the recovery
chooser does not exist.

For now, we want to just block console-conf from doing anything in install mode,
i.e. allowing a user to login etc. but eventually we will probably want to show
more useful status information from snapd during the install mode process.

Look for the marker file left by snapd recovery chooser user request detection
and attempt to run the chooser.

console-conf-write-login-details would crash if it ran before the system
got an ip address. re-jig things a bit so that it displays an nice message
when there is no ip address but still checks for a new address every 5s until
it finds one.
