Bug Description

[Impact]

linux-image-oracle for arm64 incorrectly:
1) provides virtualbox-guest-modules.
2) doesn't depend on linux-modules-extra-<version>-oracle.

[Test Case]

$ dpkg-deb -I linux-image-oracle_5.4.0.1045.43_arm64.deb | grep -P 'Depends|Provides'
Depends: linux-image-5.4.0-1045-oracle
Provides: virtualbox-guest-modules (= 6.1.16-dfsg-6~ubuntu1.20.04.1), wireguard-modules (= 1.0.20201112-1~20.04.1), zfs-modules (= 0.8.3-1ubuntu12.7)

[Where Problems Could Occur]

Package upgrades?
