Description

shields.io provides badges for a number of distribution services. What's missing for me is a badge for an Ubuntu PPA (e.g., this one), perhaps with the latest version offered.

Research direction
Start by examining existing badge services in the repository (e.g., for package repositories like npm or PyPI) to understand the service pattern. Then, explore the Launchpad API to fetch the latest version of a PPA. The issue has two comments; review them for additional context. Implement the service and add tests.
