Title:
  Recognize if apt isn't on a tty, don't wait for input

Status in “software-properties” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  If apt-get or apt-add-repository don't have a tty and are being run
  non-interactively (e.g. through cloud-init), they will hang waiting
  for confirmation if the user doesn't specify -y.  Ideally they should
  either fail and log that the user must specify -y, or succeed without
  trying to grab the user's input.
