--error-on=any argument for apt{,-get} update that makes it also
consider transient errors as errors instead of warnings.
I think a bunch of people asked for that in the past because they
implemented retry loops around that for like container startup.
--error-on maps to the configuration option APT::Update::Error-Mode,
for folks who want to drop that into apt.conf or who need to pass it
unconditionally and keep older apts working, they can do -o
APT::Update::Error-Mode=any
The patch is not big, I guess we can SRU it if we want to.
