Bug Description

The kernel changed the module name from overlayfs to overlay, this needs to be taken into consideration when creating the chroot.

[Impact]

When trying to create the chroot, it fails like this:
Processing triggers for sgml-base (1.26+nmu4ubuntu1) ...
E: 10mount: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on click-ubuntu-sdk-14.04-armhf,

ERROR

This makes the autopkgtests fail, so it's blocking bug #1693226.

[Test Case]

Run the click autopkgtests.
Check that there are no errors related to the wrong fs type.

[Regression Potential]

Fixing this for artful could make it fail in previous versions.
However, this was found by the autopkgtests, so as long as the chroot tests pass in the other revisions the fix is correct.

[Other Info]

Click is now longer in active development. These tests were failing for a long time. In here we are just trying to make a small change on the name of the python module so it doesn't conflict with python3-click which is in active development and needed by snapcraft in bug #1692102.
