Bug description:
[Impact]
Backport auth.conf.d support to allow specifying per-repository
authentication data in separate files, so packages can setup authenticated
repositories.
[Regression potential]
We ignore errors from opening auth.conf.d files, so regressions can only
occur when parsing a file fails, in which case apt would exit with an error.
[Test case]
The test suite provides autopkgtests for auth.conf.d which creates an
auth.conf.d file and checks that it is successfully used; so we can check if
those passed.
Except on trusty- do it manually there, by adding a file for a private
ppa, and then running update.
- make sure to upgrade apt-transport-https on trusty & xenial...
