Merge lp:~manjo/ubuntu-archive-tools/create-ppa into lp:ubuntu-archive-tools

[Manoj Iyer]

Added script to create PPA in launchpad from cli.

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

ubuntu-archive-tools is primarily for tools used by the Ubuntu archive admins and that are not interesting to outside parties. This looks like something that would be more suitable for inclusion in a package in the distro, for general use? (possibly ubuntu-dev-tools?)
