Title:
  software-properties-gtk does not recognize https mirrors under Ubuntu
  Software

Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  How to reproduce:

  1. Change main Ubuntu mirrors to https in /etc/apt/sources.list and do "apt update"
  2. Run software-properties-gtk
  3. Go to "Ubuntu Software" tab

  What happens:

  The tab "Ubuntu Software" does not list https mirrors. The
  corresponding boxes are not checked, the correct "Download from" entry
  is not selected and falls back to "Main server". The correct sources
  are just listed under "Other Software".

  What should happen:

  The tab "Ubuntu Software" should recognize the https mirrors from apt
  and tick the corresponding boxes and select the correct server in the
  "Download from" list.

  Ubuntu 18.04
  software-properties-gtk 0.96.24.32.7
