* 0016-diagnostics-Add-Whoopsie-support.patch: ensure that we always perform

"never" is chosen. (LP: #1906877)

Bug description:
* Impact
If one selects "Automatic" in the "Send error reports to Canonical"
portion of "Problem Reporting" the file /var/lib/apport/autoreport is
created. However, if you later switch to "Never" the file is not
removed but the panel continues to show "Never".
* Test case
- change the automatic report option in settings to automatic and then
to never, the /var/lib/apport/autoreport file should be removed
* Regression potential
The patch modifies the whoopsie configuration, check that the service
status is right for the 3 auto/manual/never options
