Turning on phased update support in chroots in 24.10 (24.04?)

Hi folks,

I just got reminded that when we wrote the initial phasing code
we made it not apply in chroots to avoid breaking builders and
things.

I'd like to remove that check because it's a bit unexpected. To
do that, I'll probably add an option to override the chroot check
to apt soon for 23.10 and then we can drop the check in 24.10, or
24.04 even.

When the initial code was written, phasing was implemented using
policy and respected by the install command. Since then, phasing
has moved to the upgrade calculation, using keep back, so there are
significantly less concerns as installs no longer respect phasing,
so image building is not affected anymore, but upgrading build chroots
would be.
