[Bug 1604744] [NEW] RM: src:qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu - SDK will be distributed separately

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Timo Jyrinki (timo-jyrinki):

Ubuntu SDK will be distributed separately from archives from now on,
also for the development series. So far it has been delivered via SDK
PPA (https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-team/+archive/ppa/), and in the
future as snaps.

qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu source package should be removed, together with
changing ubuntu-touch-meta.

Current idea would be:
1. New qtcreator (https://launchpad.net/~ci-train-ppa-service/+archive/ubuntu/landing-007/+packages) conflicts on older qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu and offers a transitional qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu package that explains how to find the Ubuntu SDK. Diff: http://paste.ubuntu.com/20286151/
2. Packages 'ubuntu-sdk', 'ubuntu-sdk-libs-dev' and 'ubuntu-sdk-libs-tools' will be removed from ubuntu-touch seed (ubuntu-touch-meta package). ubuntu-sdk-libs will remain as definition of API supported by Ubuntu SDK, and will conflict with the three former packages and describe how to find the Ubuntu SDK now.

TODO: possibly a SRU to guide more people to download the latest SDK.
