[Bug 1353575] [NEW] Have 14.04 LTS HWE upgrade messages translatable well in time before they are needed

Public bug reported:

In the case of 12.04 LTS the HWE upgrade messages became available only
last week, meaning that no-one is getting the messages in their own non-
English languages at the moment. Even if the translations would now be
done in Launchpad, LTS langpack updates are often quite rare.

For 14.04 LTS, it'd be great to add the same update-manager messages
already now for the next SRU upload (something that takes its own time
as well), so that they'd become available for translation as soon as
possible at: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source
/update-manager Then the messages could be translated, and included in
some future 14.04 LTS langpack update well in time before 16.04 LTS
comes out and they are actually shown to the users.
