An update that has two fixes can now be installed.

## Description:

This update for google-cloud-sap-agent contains the following fixes:

  * Update to version 3.5 (bsc#1229668, bsc#1229669)
  * Add instance properties to all components based on instance role.
  * Refactor OTEs hanadiskbackup and supportbundle to enable different execution
    params for internal and user invocations - 2/n.
  * Backport the configureinstance increased timeout to 3.4 and 3.3
  * Perform general X4 configurations first, then OS specific
  * Log the copy error only to log file and not to console
  * Add unit test to cover `gce.New` in systemdiscovery.
  * Adding IFNULL to log backup queries
  * Add HANA Compute Resources Report to performancediagnostics bundle.
  * Add mutex for backint event annotation logging
  * Only wait for shutdown in the initial start routine. Continue on during
    restarts.
  * Update backint log message for event annotations
  * Create HANA compute metrics report to add it to performancediagnostics.
  * Correct SAP System proto merging.
  * Change SAP_BACKINT_FILE_TRANSFER invocation
  * Adding proto for instance metadata OTE for wlm service
  * Report host maintenance events to Cloud Monitoring as part of ProcessMetrics
    data collection. Collection is done by querying the local metadata server.
    https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instances/host-maintenance-overview
  * Remove flaky unit test for canceled context in performancediagnostics.
  * Update startdaemon so LogRunningDaily and waitForShutdown behave as expected
    during configuration restarts.
  * Improve detection of Netweaver role to include SID check for multi-instance
    nodes.
  * App servers are no longer responsible for reporting DB scale type
  * Refactor computeresources to collect time-series disk IOPS usage metrics for
    performancediagnostics.
  * Fix typo in service_linux.go
  * Add SAP Workload Actions for start, stop, snooze.
  * Refactor OTEs hanadiskbackup and supportbundle to enable different execution
    params for internal and user invocations.

  * Restart daemon services when a guest action requires a restart.
  * Add WLM metrics for HANA delta and snapshot backups.
  * Add retry options for parallel restore.
  * Internal Change.

    configuration. This will set the customTime metadata entry to the current
    time in UTC.
  * Configureinstance don't fail process if backup file failed
  * Add validation for HANA database metrics configuration.
  * Add queries for disk read/write time
  * Refactor computeresources to collect time-series CPU usage metrics for
    performancediagnostics.

  * Add new metrics to default queries for HANAMonitoring
  * Fix HANA HA availability and replication metrics for error scenarios.
  * Add combinations of roles to InstanceRole enum.
  * Add condition to throw error when compression is used along with:
  * Adds a "service" OTE to enable and disable the systemd service
  * Guest actions support for backint OTE
