[Bug 1808038] [NEW] ubuntu-distro-info should include information about ESM status

[Dan Watkins]

Public bug reported:

ubuntu-distro-info is an important source of information about the
current support state of the various Ubuntu releases.  Currently,
however, it provides no information about the status of Extended
Security Maintenance for Ubuntu releases, which is an important aspect
of Ubuntu "support".

(If we already had concrete ESM information in this package, it could
have served to clear up the recent confusion about bionic's "10 years of
support".)

** Affects: distro-info (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
