Title:
  Mantic minimal cloud images (ubuntu-cpc project) arm64 efibootmgr
  removal

Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  With the migration from linux-kvm to linux-virtual/genreic for the
  mantic minimal images we can now start building arm64 minimal cloud
  images.

  When building initial test images we noticed that when comparing the
  amd64 minimized images and the arm64 images that the efibootmgr
  package was not installed in the arm64 images.

  This is because for amd64 it is installed as a recommends of shim-
  signed but for arm64 we are installing shim-signed `--no-install-
  recommends`.

  See https://git.launchpad.net/livecd-rootfs/tree/live-build/ubuntu-
  cpc/hooks.d/base/disk-image-uefi.binary#n115

  This bug is to track the alignment of amd64 and arm64 when installing
  shim-signed and grub related packages.

  In general for minimized images we should not be install recommends and for
  non minimized we should. This policy should be aligned for all architectures.
