  please drop linux-wlan-ng from ship-live seed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: linux-wlan-ng

  After the prism2_usb kernel driver got fixed to not need userspace
  tools, and we got it into the Ubuntu kernel (from staging) the only
  useful binary from linux-wlan-ng is the prism2-firmware-installer
  package. And this package is not very useful without an internet
  connection (it just downloads a non-distributable firmware file) so it
  does not help much to have it on the live-cd.

  So the old binaries linux-wlan-ng* are not useful any longer and can
  definitely go to universe, while prism2-firmware-installer is useful
  and could be in main but does not need to if it is not on the live CD.
