upgrades: Set apt configuration to allow release info change
Helps #1601.

When release information such as 'Version' and 'Suite' change for a distribution
changes, apt requires an explicit confirmation from the user. apt-get(8)
specifies the reason for this prompt as ensuring that the user is prepared for
the change. On a FreedomBox installation, as the system administration agent of
the user, FreedomBox has to make this decision on whether the user is ready for
the change. FreedomBox works to keep the system up-to-date and manages
configuration changes for packages, data migration etc. Hence, accept all
release information changes without a prompt.

Without this, when a stable release is made, if the user was using that
code-name before the release, then the system stop receiving updates and no new
apps can be installed in FreedomBox. This happened in case of Buster release
although Debian itself had some part in this. See:
