As HTTPS transport has been available by default in apt since 1.5, apt-transport-https has become a dummy transitional package whose installation isn't needed on any of the supported Ubuntu releases (oldest supported release, Focal, is using apt 1.6).

This commit removes apt-transport-https installation from Ubuntu install script to prevent installation of unnecessary package.

See apt-transport-https manpages for details.
