[SRU Justification]
[Impact]
backport-iwlwifi-dkms of latest upstream revision 8324 has no updates for a few months and is becoming a problem when installed against recent kernels >= v5.4. It's reported to have poor network throughput for 7000/8000/9000 series cards.
[Fix]
On Bionic and Eoan, we've skipped module install against kernel >= v5.0 because we have backported drivers for new device models as much as we can. On Focal and on, the in-tree kernel iwlwifi driver is currently much more up to date in comparison to backport-iwlwifi-dkms, so there should be no more reason to install it automatically via modaliases.
So two actions to be taken here:
* to remove modaliases for the dkms package, so that it won't be installed automatically via "3rd party drivers".
* to mark OBSOLETED_BY kernel 5.4.0 and up
[Test Case]
* For new installations, this means backport-iwlwifi-dkms shouldn't be installed automatically even with a PCI id match.
* For existing installations, dkms modules will still be built, but the module installation will be skipped, leaving messages like:
$ dkms status
backport-iwlwifi, 8324, 5.4.0-33-generic, x86_64: installed
(WARNING! Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING!
Diff between built and installed module!) (WARNING! Diff

This can also be tested locally with follow command against packages prebuilt in https://launchpad.net/~vicamo/+archive/ubuntu/ppa-1863583:
sudo env AUTOPKGTEST_ARTIFACTS=/tmp debian/tests/dkms-autopkgtest
[Regression Potential]
Low. Moving to in-tree drivers instead.
