ubuntu-support-status does mark FIPS packages as unsupported on 18.04

[Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos]

In ubuntu 18.04 with FIPS (via fips or fips-updates stream), ubuntu-support-status marks the FIPS packages as unsupported. As these packages are used by customers that require support, this message is confusing for existing as well as prospectives that test our product.

```
$ sudo ua status
...
fips yes n/a NIST-certified core packages
fips-updates yes enabled NIST-certified core packages with priority security updates
```

```
$ sudo ubuntu-support-status
[sudo] password for nmav:
Support status summary of 'ubuntu1804':

```

The following command shows the FIPS-installed packages as unsupported:

```
$ sudo ubuntu-support-status --show-unsupported

openssh-client-hmac openssl ubuntu-fips
```

All of the packages above are supported via the fips and fips-updates ppas.

[Brian Murray (brian-murray)]

The way ubuntu-support-status is currently written it has no knowledge of official third party packages so anything that is not from archive.ubuntu.com, or a mirror of it, is considered unsupported. This is why ubuntu-security-status was written and intended to replace ubuntu-support-status.
