Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  User might be confused that esm-apps is not delivering more security
  updates to universe if the service is available, not that is blocking
  package to receive security updates unless the service is enabled

  [Test Case]

  To test this fix we will add an integration test that target the
  scenario where we deliver esm-apps messages on apt-upgrade. We will
  check if we delivering the new message if the new package is
  installed.

  [ Regression Potential ]

  We are just modifying the APT message. The only regression possible is
  that users might be manually parsing APT output, which will now
  change. However, this is not a good practice and shouldn't be
  supported.

  [Discussion]

  The following message can now appear on the output of apt-get upgrade:

  ----------------------
  The following security updates require Ubuntu Pro with 'esm-apps' enabled:
  <PACKAGES>
  ----------------------

  This message has caused some confusion among the users. One
  interpretation is that those fixes can only be delivered if the esm-
  apps service is enabled in the machine. However, this is not true, the
  community can still provide fixes for the packages in universe. What
  the esm-apps service will provide is more updates for those packages,
  not restrict how those packages are updated.

  Because of that, we are changing the message to:

  ----------------------
  Get more security updates through Ubuntu Pro with 'esm-apps' enabled:
  <PACKAGES>
  ----------------------

  Which should better communicate what the service is providing
