1. remove apt-transport-https from pre_reqs …

   This package is no longer needed on all current distro versions we support. From
   the package description (https://packages.debian.org/buster/apt-transport-https);
   
   > This is a dummy transitional package - https support has been moved into the
   > apt package in 1.5. It can be safely removed.
   
   Verifying the version of apt that's available in Ubuntu and Debian:
   
   Ubuntu:
   
       docker run --rm ubuntu:xenial apt --version
       apt 1.2.35 (amd64)
   
       docker run --rm ubuntu:17.04 apt --version
       apt 1.4.6 (amd64)
   
       docker run --rm ubuntu:17.10 apt --version
       apt 1.5.2 (amd64)
   
       docker run --rm ubuntu:18.04 apt --version
       apt 1.6.14 (amd64)
   
       docker run --rm ubuntu:20.04 apt --version
       apt 2.0.6 (amd64)
   
   Debian:
   
       docker run --rm debian:stretch apt --version
       apt 1.4.11 (amd64)
   
       docker run --rm debian:buster apt --version
       apt 1.8.2.3 (amd64)
   
       docker run --rm debian:bullseye apt --version
       apt 2.2.4 (amd64)
   
   From the above; all currently supported versions of Ubuntu (18.04 and up), and
   Debian (old-stable and stable) have apt > 1.5, so we can remove this dependency
   from the installation instructions.
