Server Application Banner Updates
[GOAL]
Ensure that Ubuntu is visible in netcraft surveys by adding Ubuntu to the server banner.
[RATIONALE]
When looking at Ubuntu Server, some services such as ssh say "Debian" rather than "Ubuntu". Make a base list of servers that we care about and when someone uses netcat, the user gets a proper information.
