Azure-docs: Ubuntu 20.04 Documentation

[jlorich]

Now that Ubuntu 20.04 LTS is out there should be supporting documentation on how to install Edge on it. At the moment the microsoft repo exists and is easy to add, but things like moby-engine don't install out of the box so there may be some further changes to make.

@jlorich
Platform support for Ubuntu 20.04 (Azure IoT Edge) will be published in Tier 2 OS list. (No ETA as of now)

Please note that the Tier 2 systems are compatible with Azure IoT Edge and can be used relatively easily. For tier 2 systems:
• Microsoft has done informal testing on the platforms or knows of a partner successfully running Azure IoT Edge on the platform
• Installation packages for other platforms may work on these platforms

Please let us know if you need further help.
