    Summary: hibagent update

    Details: On Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, the hibagent package has been updated to add IMDSv2 support, as IMDSv1 uses an insecure protocol and is no longer recommended. In addition, on all releases, hibagent has been updated to do nothing if ODH is configured.
