  driver-inject-disk: in target debs are installed before kernel has
  been

Bug description:
  Driver-inject-disk copies the debs in a well known location, and later
  installs them in-target.

  At the moment this is done during post-base-installer.d/* time, which
  is just before the kernel is installed in-target.

  Thus if a deb has dependencies on the correct linux-image-3.x.y-WW-
  generic, it will fail to install & configure at that time.

  A better time to install driver-injection-disk debs would be at pre-
  pkgse.d/* time, since that is after the kernel has been installed but
  before initramfs has been updated in-target.

  I'll propose such a change, but it is probably worth testing with pre-
  existing driver-injection-disks.
