Title:
  Mail notification's headlines do not mention autoremovals

Status in unattended-upgrades package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in unattended-upgrades package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  We run unattended-upgrades happily with 'Unattended-Upgrade::Mail'
  active and 'Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Dependencies'

  Sometimes a UU run would not install nor hold anything, but only
  autoremove packages that have become obsolete, typically old kernels.
  In such cases, UU's mail notification reads:

  """
   Unattended upgrade returned: True
   
   Warning: A reboot is required to complete this upgrade.

   Packages that were upgraded:
   
   Package installation log:
   [...]
  """

  Which is quite irritating.

  It would be very helpful if it also contained a line "Packages that
  were (auto-)removed:"
