New description:

 upgrades take up a significant chunk of time every week and distract
 sysadmins (or at least me) from focusing on other projects.

 upgrades should be therefore automated, as much as possible.

 see also #31239 about auomated installs and this is part of the wider "ops
 card questionnaire", where we answered no to a question about this, see
 #30881.

 checklist:

 * [x] install needrestart everywhere, in interactive mode
 * [x] switch needrestart to automatic mode
 * [x] install unattended-upgrades everywhere
 * [ ] fix major upgrades docs to disable unattended-upgrades during the
 upgrade run
 * ~~[ ] automate reboots~~ see #33406 instead

Comment (by anarcat):

 hiro deployed unattended upgrades everywhere last week, so this is almost
 done.

 next step here is to fix the docs to mention that we *have* this running
 (and deprecate the tor-prepare-upgrades stuff) and fix the major upgrades
 docs, as documented in the summary.

 we should also make sure that unattended-upgrades follows backports
 upgrade. i installed smartd from backports everywhere in #33684 (on new
 servers) and it would be important to have that work.
