Title:
  Lack of Legacy Support information

Status in distro-info-data package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Determining if a release has reached the end of ESM is generally done
  via the information in the distro-info-data package.

  However, those dates are currently limited to eol-esm, representing
  the end of the 10 year ESM coverage period, and do not include
  information on Legacy Support.

  The optional Legacy support add-on on top of Ubuntu Pro extends the
  security maintenance and support for an additional 2 years, resulting
  in 12 years coverage overall. That information is already publicly
  present in our Release Cycle page (https://ubuntu.com/about/release-
  cycle), with dates set for all LTS releases after Trusty.

  Current columns are version,codename,series,created,release,eol,eol-
  server,eol-esm. An additional column (e.g., eol-legacy) should be
  added to reflect this additional period of support.
