Public bug reported:

[Impact]

 * Information of HWE kernels are shown in containers despite this information 
is useless most of the time since containers use the host systems' kernels.
 * The check for HWE kernels is noticably slow OTOH, taking around 0.2s on my 
intel i5 laptop.

[Test Case]

 * Run the script in a container to see it being shortcut:
   $ bash -x /usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-hwe-eol
   + '[' '' = --force ']'
   + type systemd-detect-virt
   + systemd-detect-virt -q -c
   + exit
 * Run the script in a VM of without virtualization to see it still taking long 
time to execute:
  
    $ time /usr/lib/update-notifier/update-motd-hwe-eol

    real        0m0.241s
    user        0m0.170s
    sys         0m0.073s

[Regression Potential]

 * The fix is very simple there is no expected regression.
