Solution:
- fix /usr/share/unattended-upgrades/unattended-upgrades-shutdown to
expect "false" instead of "False"

The above solves the issue for me.

Title:
apt/unattended-upgrades stalls shutdown
Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
When unattended-upgrades is installed, 9 out of 10 shutdowns/reboots
hang while "starting unattended upgrades shutdown". This hang stalls
the shutdown process for 5-10 mins.
If I disable unnattended-upgrades via the /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20auto-
upgrades and/or 50unattended-upgrades, the problems occurs.
If I terminate the service before shutdown/reboot (sudo service
unattended-upgrades stop) the problem still occurs.
If I remove the package (sudo apt remove unattended-upgrades) the
problem no longer occurs.
This occurs on a freshly installed version of Ubuntu Server 16.04.1
(both unattended-upgrades installed via install GUI or manual install
of unattended-upgrades)
Both Kern.log & syslog do not show the shutdown process (I believe
because the filesystems have already unmounted)
