[ Brian Murray ]
* test/test_sources_list.py: resolve test failure regarding EOL upgrades
* DistUpgradeQuirks.py: pep8 cleanup, remove some additional unnecessary
  quirks
* DistUpgrade/patches/: remove pycompile patch

[ Steve Langasek ]
* Drop all quirks for upgrades prior to the karmic->lucid upgrade; all
  releases earlier than 10.04 are entirely EOLed, and in any case users
  should not be upgrading directly from such old releases to 13.10 or
  later without going through the intermediate LTS releases, so this is
  all dead code.
* Drop use of base-installer for detecting "recommended" kernels for the
  hardware. So far this code was only ever used for a one-time transition
  when more specialized kernel flavors became available on i386 that were
  preferred over the -386 flavor, and in the meantime the code is causing
  wrong results on upgrade for users of UbuntuStudio, which ships a kernel
  flavor that's not known by base-installer. LP: #1220898.

* DistUpgradeQuirks.py: when removing .crash files also remove whoopsie
  .upload and .uploaded files
* DistUpgradeCache.py: remove unhelpful system error message from upgrade
