This was fixed in an apport upload:
apport (2.14.5-0ubuntu3) utopic; urgency=medium
* apport-noui: make the package installation automatically enable
autosubmission, which doesn't currently work on the phone without it;
and update the package description accordingly. LP: #1351137.

Note, however, that this won't work for upgrades. So some people won't
have the fix.
Down the road if the wizard design calls for making this configurable,
we can add the logic to the wizard. But for now, pre-installing the
file seems best.

Title:
ubuntu-system-settings-wizard does not create
/var/lib/apport/autoreport on first boot
Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
On newly-installed devices, the /var/lib/apport/autoreport file is
missing. This file is required to be present in order for /etc/init
/apport-noui.conf to autosubmit crash reports to Canonical. It is
supposed to be created by default, and because this is a configuration
setting, it cannot be set at image build time because it needs to be
in the read-write portion of the filesystem.
Since ubuntu-system-settings manages this file, and since the default
setting should be restored on factory reset, I believe the right thing
is for ubuntu-system-settings-wizard to create the file at the time it
notifies the user of this policy on first boot. (Indeed, I had
believed this was already being done. I'm not sure if this regressed,
or if the requirement failed to be communicated.)
