With having unminimize split out from livecd-rootfs, we should
re-introduce it as a package for, at least, Noble so that it's
not seen as a regression. From 24.10 and onward, we're going to
drop it altogether.
The ubuntu-core-installer image is an installer that installs ubuntu
core. The environment the installer runs in is similar to the server
installer but it has a source catalog entry that points to the model
created in ubuntu-core-installer/hooks/05-prepare-image.binary, which
subiquity knows how to install.
do_layered_desktop_image() is now the standard entry point for flavors using
ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap and handles minimal/standard/live layers in a
configurable and flavor-agnostic way to reduce code duplication.
ubuntu/include.* are the master location for these files.
Copy them over for projects with similar needs, while skipping ones that
are incorrect.

Ubuntu MATE is switching to a layered image in preparation to
use ubuntu-desktop-provision. Luckily, their seed structure is
already well-structured for layering, so this is easily done.
Per the comments, BASE_SEED was initially used to identify the seed in the
flavor to use for identifying preseeded snaps, and later was also used to
identify which "minimal-remove" seed to apply to an image.
The first usage is now obsolete after a refactor; we now correctly detect
snaps from any of the included seeds without needing an explicit
declaration.
The second usage only applies to installer images that are NOT using layered
squashfs, since for these images 'minimal' is a separate squashfs layer
rather than a list of packages to remove after the fact.
Refactor this code to eliminate pointless definitions of BASE_SEED and
define it only for the subset of flavors today that:
- have a 'minimal-remove' seed
- are not using layered squashfs.
If the previous if statement checking if PASSES_TO_LAYERS is true,
then the last return code be non-zero and a return statement with no
argument will return the error code of the if statement thus exiting
the script. This is not our intent. So we need to return 0 here when
layer name as already been registered
