[Merge] ~slingamn/software-properties:norequests into software-properties:ubuntu/master

[Shivaram Lingamneni]

Thanks for your help!

I was able to enable livepatch via these instructions, but I'm not sure how to trigger the relevant software-properties. The command-line `canonical-livepatch` command appears to use a Go binary inside the snap, rather than the Python code in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/softwareproperties, to query the unix socket.

Is there a GUI frontend in the Gnome environment that uses this code?
