Title:
  Default to syncing from testing for precise

Status in “ubuntu-dev-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “ubuntu-dev-tools” source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  We want to sync from testing for precise, so we'll need some SRUs.

  I've added preliminary support for spotting LTSs to distro-info so
  that we can do this automatically in the future.

  info.git;a=commitdiff;h=16a737845a616377e7ba2a0f73f647c4bccea2b7

  SRU Verification:
  1. Find a package with different versions in precise, unstable, and testing.
  2. "syncpackage --simulate $packagename" should sync from testing, not unstable (and show changelog entries excluding the version in unstable) (--force may be necessary if there is an Ubuntu delta)
  3. "requestsync $packagename" should request from testing, not unstable (and show changelog entries excluding the version in unstable
  4. requestsync and syncpackage should be able to sync from unstable with the "-d unstable" option
