Current evaluation

Closed unmerged after maintainers chose migration from deprecated ubuntu-core to core. The proper classic-snaps setup landed in PR #1112 via commit 49b39ef9a.

Resolution: closed superseded

Reason: Maintainers rejected retaining an ubuntu-core linker fallback and said core migration would be implemented separately. PR #1112 later merged as commit 49b39ef9a, adding core setup for classic-confinement builds.
