Bug description:
  $ grep "xenial\|hirsute" /usr/share/distro-info/ubuntu.csv
  16.04 LTS,Xenial Xerus,xenial,2015-10-22,2016-04-21,2021-04-21,2021-04-21,2024-04-21

  2024-04-21 and 2022-01-22 are both weekend days which historically
  isn't when a release is moved to an EoL status. The dates have been
  changed in Impish (https://launchpadlibrarian.net/543975614/distro-
  info-data_0.48_0.49.diff.gz) to weekdays and those changes should be
  SRU'ed to stable releases so users can better plan.
