  reading casper-md5check.json fails

Status in apport source package in Focal:
  Fix Released
Status in apport source package in Groovy:

Status in apport source package in Hirsute:

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Bugs reported by apport are not including information about the results of 
the md5 check of the installation media used. Additionally, users are presented 
with a traceback regarding the ubuntu hook which is used with all bug reports.

  [Test Case]
  1) Boot an Ubuntu 20.04 LTS or Ubuntu 20.10 install
  2) Create the file /var/log/installer/casper-md5check.json with mode 0600.
  3) Run 'ubuntu-bug coreutils'

  ......ERROR: hook /usr/share/apport/general-hooks/ubuntu.py crashed:
  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py", line 228, in 
_run_hook
      symb['add_info'](report, ui)
    File "/usr/share/apport/general-hooks/ubuntu.py", line 84, in add_info
      apport.hookutils.attach_casper_md5check(report,
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/hookutils.py", line 995, in 
attach_casper_md5check
      with open(location) as json_file:
  PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 
'/var/log/installer/casper-md5check.json'

  [Where problems could occur]
  We are switching to reading the file with attach_root_command_outputs which 
is a well tested function in apport so the only problem would be a result of 
the new code being added. This works well in Hirsute so there is little chance 
of their being an error.
