add newer Ubuntu releases to lintian for older Ubuntu releases

[Brian Murray]

lintian has not been SRU'ed for multiple new releases of Ubuntu and should know about those new releases.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

I was going to SRU this bug for Bionic bug given that the version of lintian fails to build from source in Bionic I don't think it's worth the effort.

I tested lintian in by using debuild with 2vcard after changing the release name in 2vcard to impish. With the version of lintian in the release pocket lintian raised and error about the release name and with the version of lintian from -proposed no error was raised, so I'm setting this to verification done.
