Looks like the installation of software-properties-common hangs because it waits for user input. Why do we need to install it anyway?

gcc-9 is the system compiler on ubuntu 20.04, and gcc-11 is the system compiler on ubuntu-22.04, so just switch to those instead of trying to install them on the previous releases (which doesn't work because the packages aren't present.)

I'm merging this as-is, but see https://github.com/boostorg/system/issues/132. Maybe we need to make this header-only as well.

Probably.

I'd remove the stub -- people have had years to convert now we should make them move on.
