Bug Description
[Impact]
* Userspace component required for hw-enablement of opencapi cards on POWER systems.
[Test Case]
* Check that package is available
* If one has opencapi cards, test they work with libocxl as built in bionic suite.
[Regression Potential]
* This is a NEW leaf package, not installed by default, thus by definition cannot regress.
* No change backport from cosmic.
[Other Info]
* Original bug report
Add new package for libocxl, which is the user library which allows to interact with the new ocxl "generic" driver, used to interact with opencapi cards/accelerators.

This package is very important for POWER9, since this is the default userspace way to access OpenCAPI accelerators.
Not having this package on Ubuntu LTS will impact the OpenCAPI accelerators usage on Ubuntu on POWER9.
