Upgrade Notifications for Kubuntu and Ubuntu Studio

[Aleix Pol]

Note that Discover is just using PackageKit, so it's a problem to address there.

If despite having Discover be "very, very flawed" you want to have a
discussion one day about how to make it fit for your purpose, I'll be
happy to join and see what can be done.

Best,
Aleix
