Title:
  Pollinate missing from xenial minimal images

Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in livecd-rootfs source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Pollinate will not be present in the xenial minimal images when first
  booted and the random number seeding that it performs will be absent.

  [Test Case]

  Boot an unmodified xenial minimal image from date serial 20180628 or
  older (for example [1]). Run `apt-cache policy pollinate` and note
  that it is not installed.

  [Regression Potential]

  The regression risk should be very minimal. The only change being made
  here is to not remove the vim-common package, which keeps pollinate in
  place. Pollinate is already present in the base cloud images and all
  bionic images (including minimal).

  [Other Info]

  This change was tested by doing a full build of all ubuntu-cpc images
  in launchpad.
