[Bug 1959015] [NEW] Switch to new HTTPS-capable domains for PPAs

[Colin Watson]

Public bug reported:

As described in bug 1473091, PPAs are now being served from new domains
that aren't under launchpad.net and so can safely serve HTTPS without
risk of compromising Launchpad session cookies.  The old domains will
keep working indefinitely, but nevertheless it would be good if we could
arrange for add-apt-repository to use the new domains as of 22.04.

The changes are:

 * http://ppa.launchpad.net/ → https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/ (or http:// works too, but we should prefer https://)
 * https://private-ppa.launchpad.net/ → https://private-ppa.launchpadcontent.net/

** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
