Only after using -ss do I get the behavior I'm after.
It used to work out of the box because the old source.list had the commented out deb-src line, but we don't have those anymore in the brave new world of deb822, so we probably reconsider this requirement altogether.
I actually think it was surprising behavior beforehand but I didn't care much since the default case was covered.
--------
[ Impact ]
* `-s` is not working on `noble` it has no affect due to deb822 transition.
* Even `-ss` suffering from the same in noble.
[ Test Plan ]
* running `add-apt-repository -s` or `add-apt-repository -ss` has no
affect.
[ Where problems could occur ]
* Enabling deb-src is not the major usecase for add-apt-repository
but wrongly implemented solution could cause add-apt-repository to
fail or break the sources file which may require manual fix on those
broken files to get `apt update` working again.
[ Other Info ]
* Merge request here: https://code.launchpad.net/~tchavadar/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+git/software-properties/+merge/497789
enables deb822 by default.
