[Impact]

 * Allow ubuntu-advantage users to access the extended security maintenance script with a simple command line tool. This script needs to hit precise machines and be easy for ubuntu-advantage customers to enable, thus basefiles was chosen as a home.

[Test Case]

 * Run ubuntu-advantage, it should print out help
 * Run ubuntu-advantage enable <token>, but you need to be an ubuntu-advantage customer to get that token. In the end, the script simply adds and removes an /etc/apt/sources.list.d entry.
 * you can contact me (<email address hidden>) if you would like a token for test purposes.

[Regression Potential]

 * Low, this is a new script, not included in any automated startup paths.
