[Bug 1679252] [NEW] Non-Intel architectures are configured with security repos that don't work

[Dan Watkins]

Public bug reported:

In the fix for bug 1513529, we[0] modified livecd-rootfs to write out a
sources.list that matches the sources.list in Ubuntu Server installed
from an ISO.  We (presumably) compared to an Intel installation, and
hard-coded security.ubuntu.com as a repo in sources.list.

Unfortunately, packages for non-Intel architectures aren't published to
security.ubuntu.com; they are instead published at
http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/.  That should be the URL that we
configure as the source for $SUITE-security.
