Public bug reported:

[Impact]
This release contains both bug-fixes and new features and we would like to make 
sure all of our supported customers have access to these improvements.

See the changelog entry below for a list of changes.

[Test Case]
The following development and SRU process was followed: 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/walinuxagentUpdates

The Microsoft Azure Linux Agent team will execute their testsuite, which
includes extension testing , against the walinuxagent that is in
-proposed.  A successful run will be required before the proposed
walinuxagent can be let into -updates.

The CPC team will be in charge of attaching a summary of testing to the
bug.  CPC team members will not mark 'verification-done' until this has
happened.

[Pre-SRU Test Cases]
1.) Launch instance on Azure
2.) Upgrade walinuxagent (usually from PPA)
3.) Confirm that "waagent" is running, check /var/log/waagent.log for errors
4.) Reboot, repeat step 3

[SRU Test Cases]
1.) Build new cloud image with -proposed package
2.) Boot instance
3.) Confirm that instance provisioned
4.) Run standard tests and regression tests
5.) Repeat from step 2 for all other Azure VM Sizes.
