[Bug 1934199] Re: Switch from Livepatch service to UA client

[Robert Ancell]

I had a WIP branch done as part of the ESM work. That's now been
rescheduled to April 2022, and the Livepatch migration will be done as
part of that.

Bug description:
  software-properties currently uses a HTTP over Unix domain socket
  service from the livepatch snap to get the status and enable/disable
  it. This service is being deprecated with the 'ua' command line tool
  now providing this functionality. software-properties also installed
  the snap to gain access to this service. This is no longer required as
  the 'ua' tool does this.

  (*) The Livepatch service is a HTTP over Unix domain service running
  on livepatchd.sock inside the livepatch snap.
