Bug Description

[Impact]

UC20 images should use 8GB

currently it is set to 10GB which is half way between 8GB and 16GB sd-card / usb-stick sizes.

8GB is big enough, let's use that.

[Test Case]

Build an UC20 image using the -proposed version of livecd-rootfs. Make sure that the resulting image is 8GB. Check if the image still boots.

[Regression Potential]

Besides the image not booting, other potential is in the code doing wrong thing and passing wrong arguments to ubuntu-image. But this should be all visible during a test build.

Build ubuntu-core images with livecd-rootfs amd64 2.664.1, and arm pi images are correctly just as big as the seed partition (~1.2G), and amd64 image at 8GB.
