This appears to be a holdover from when "-fde" kernels were
provided by a separate kernel, fully dependent on its existance
(eg. linux-azure kernel containing linux-azure-fde packaging).
For historical reference, this lead to issues of "-fde" kernels
not being properly tested and otherwise losing visibility in
several important areas of our infrastructure.
In the case of linux-azure-fde, it's now provided as a completely
separate kernel tree, rather than some type of indirect flavour.
For the purposes of the packaging here, I propose we remove any
hardcoding of "-fde" to a kernel package name. The "fde"
considerations should be made at the base kernel level,
and packaging provided by a distinct "fde" kernel.
