Issue body

The code snippet for the `default-configure` hook is a copy of the `configure`-hook. I think there was a mishap when copying this configuration over. See the [old discourse post](https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/adding-snap-configuration/15246) as a comparison --- *Reported from: https://documentation.ubuntu.com/snapcraft/stable/how-to/crafting/add-a-snap-configuration/*
