In contrast to #5 and not knowing any better interface, I expect
'lsb_release' to tell you if system uses HWE or not.

This can triggered by installiation of packet 'linux-image-generic-
hwe.16.04' or 'linux-image-lowlatency-hwe.16.04'.

These packets should

 - either replace paket 'base-files' with an version for '...-hwe',
maybe named 'base-files-hwe', which contains a file '/etc/lsb_release'
with the string ' (HWE)' after the old description

 - or run a script on installiation thich edits the file
'/etc/lsb_release'.
