Public bug reported:

https://ubuntu-archive-team.ubuntu.com/priority-mismatches.html wants to
promote wpasupplicant et al to Priority: important because dhcpcd-base
Recommends: it.

We want dhcpcd-base everywhere because it's used as the dhcp client in
the initramfs when that is needed.  But we don't want it to pull
wpasupplicant in by default.  This Recommends: needs to be dropped.
