targeted to b/c/d/e, although all my initial work is on e only.  It
includes a large amount of refactoring that I don't think is appropriate
to sru back, so b/c/d would get a much smaller update - if at all.

one note on this - when a private ppa is removed, the auth file is not
currently removed, i don't have the code removing it, but probably it
should be; i'll look at adding that.

have not implemented this yet; however add-apt-repository does support
providing a full sources.list line, so it could be called one-line-
at-a-time.  however, the way just drops the line directly into the main
sources.list file, and doesn't parse out the login:password to put into
an auth.conf.d/ file.

have not implemented this yet
