Title:
  merge 1:4.2.8p12+dfsg-3

Status in ntp package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  This merge is a a bit more special than usual.

  NTP is no more in Main since 18.04 and also gladly the issues with it
  dropped to almost none (by not being used). Chrony (its replacement)
  OTOH has way less issues and also is easier to support upstream.

  We have upstreamed or debianized most of our changes, but on this
  merge want to -intentionally- drop some delta that is not.

  We have three main delta elements left:
  a) set ubuntu time servers
  b) some tweaks on pps documentaiton
  c) dhclient integration to read systemd-leasefile

  
  Of these:
  a) we want to keep just this as only there we can guarantee the servers are 
working
  b) we want to drop as it just isn't important to adapt that on merges (people 
should use chrony/gpsd for that anyway)
  c) we want to avoid the maintenance of this on a non main package. Therefore 
keep this as-is as long as it merges easily, but in case of any trouble drop it.
