[mythtvnz] Upgrade from 34 to 35 in Ubuntu 20.04

[Robert Fisher]

I have had no trouble upgrading several versions of Ubuntu and MythTV
See <https://lists.ourshack.com/pipermail/mythtvnz/2024-March/016952.html>

I upgraded my Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS backend and a Linuxmint frontend as follows (without a problem):-
(I found previous upgrades painless too so I didn't even bother to backup the database)
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mythbuntu/34
sudo apt update
sudo apt dist-upgrade
sudo shutdown -r now
sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:mythbuntu/33
