Now that we have the cloud-minimal seed for minimized cloud
image builds, we should drop all the workarounds and hacks
we once needed when we were using the server seed. We can
directly use the new metapackage and get rid of the tasks and
other autoremoves, et al.
classic ubuntu-image builds will build the gadget from a repository
using make, and the reference pc-gadget snap uses chdist to pull the
latest GRUB/shim from the proper series x pocket; NB: chdist was used
instead of the more convenient pull-lp-debs as devscripts is in main
while ubuntu-dev-tools is in universe. It's inelegant for livecd-rootfs
to pick up dependencies needed to build gadgets, even if it's for the
official ones as other gadgets might want other dependencies, rather
this should be expressed as part of the build contract of the gadget, or
livecd-rootfs should only consume pre-built gadgets built in a standard
way (e.g. snap build, deb build etc.).
Revert this change for now as /boot then becomes a FAT partition which
breaks DPKG requirements[1]. This change is going to be re-evaluated and
maybe introduced in a different way.
This is not a clean revert because of 3282efb ("ubuntu-cpc: cleanup
disk-images-uefi.binary") which we want to keep.

This reverts commit 6a66666e0a5ab1ad96cb0e388f278aafbd012ffe.
Package linux-allwinner has a kernel with the generic flavour as
dependency. Add this translation to our code checking the correct
installation.

continue to be supplied. It will depend on generic packages.

Remove kvm-image altogether.
Previously for minimal image replace_kernel function replaced virtual
images with kvm, and called force_boot_without_initramfs. Now simply
call force_boot_without_initramfs for minimal image without replacing
kernel flavour.
This also means minimal images can now be built for arm64 and armhf.

Up to now we have used u-boot-menu for preinstalled images for the SiFive
HiFive Unmatched and Unleashed boards and GRUB for all other RISC-V images.
The choice was made because RISC-V GRUB was not available when the SiFive
boards where released.
Let the Unmatched and Unleashed board preinstalled images use GRUB.
Simplify the code.
