AU: Announce the update engine status on startup.

This is to ensure that the system is in a consistent state in case update-engine
crashes.

BUG=chromium-os:15069
TEST=press "Check for update" in Chrome, restart update-engine while downloading
an update, see the status go back to 'up to date' (rather than get stuck in
'Downloading')
