[Bug 1989959] [NEW] Incorrect ESM coverage information

[vofka]

Public bug reported:

Software Properties says that Extended Security Maintenance provides
security updates for over 30000 Ubuntu packages, see lines 1269 and 1346
in data/gtkbuilder/main.ui.

According to https://ubuntu.com/16-04, Canonical provides extended
security maintenance for binary packages that reside in the "main"
Ubuntu repository, which contains about 7000 architecture-specific
packages depending on the Ubuntu release. Moreover, ESM is only provided
for a part of packages, not for all packages in the "main" repository.

** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu)
