Bug description:
  * Impact

  The new Ubuntu Pro integration hits an exception when the pro client
  call isn't returning a value json output

  * Test case

  Check that reports on
  https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/741dff427bf59c3208da3b509caf1e8d2385fdea
  stop

  Also on a system not connected to pro, install an old ubuntu-
  advantage-tools 27 (outdated version), disconnect from internet and
  start update-manager, it should list the updates and not error out

  * Regression potential

  The code is changing the callback to get the list of pro updates to
  use the ubuntu-advantage-tools python API instead of calling the
  cmdline client. If there is an issue with the new API the pro updates
  listing on non pro-attached system could be incorrect or the client
  could hit a new exception

  [info] A new version is available: 30~20.04
  Please run:
  sudo apt-get install ubuntu-advantage-tools
  <---

  Is it the ubuntu-advantage-tools version problem, is it the failure to
  access contracts.canonical.com? Should we switch to calling the API
  directly as in 24.04[1] or handle the exception?
