* update-motd.d/50-news: Fix LP: #1691901
- when the curl fails (perhaps due to a firewall issue), we should
create an empty cache file, so that subsequent runs are not
penalized; ensure that we *only* print when we're not forced

* debian/rules, debian/motd-news.service, debian/motd-news.timer:
- rework the motd-news, using a systemd timer, LP: #1637800 comment #4
- timer fires the first time, 1 minute after boot, and then every 12 hours
thereafter
- timer calls "/etc/update-motd.d/50-motd-news --force", which forces a
background fetch of the news, written to /var/cache/motd-news
* debian/motd-news:
- change the variable name of the list of news sources from SERVER to URLS
* update-motd.d/50-motd-news, debian/postinst:
- renamed file, to be consistent, "motd-news"
- remove the old conf file /etc/update-motd.d/50-news
