[Bug 1609796] [NEW] cant upgrade EOL 15.04

[Achim Behrens]

Public bug reported:

A user in #ubuntu complained about no beeing able to upgrade his EOL
15.04 (cloud) server install, so i made a 15.04 server install in vbox
to test this scenario, and he is right:

Running "sudo do-release-upgrade" results in: 
"An upgrade from 'vivid' to 'xenial' is not supported with this tool."

An EOL Upgrade with changing the sources.list to use the old-releases
doesnt work since vivid is not moved to the old-releases yet: http
://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ .

** Affects: update-manager-core (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
