On removal the package should warn a reboot is needed

[Adam Smith]

When the bcmwl-kernel-source package is removed it should communicate that a reboot is needed. This will be picked up by software-properties-gtk and be communicated to the user. Attached is a patch.

This will help with this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/b43-fwcutter/+bug/1490212

As part of a recent change in the Stable Release Update verification policy we would like to inform that for a bug to be considered verified for a given release a verification-done-$RELEASE tag needs to be added to the bug where $RELEASE is the name of the series the package that was tested (e.g. verification-done-xenial). Please note that the global 'verification-done' tag can no longer be used for this purpose.

Thank you!

Trusty release has gone end of support for this package, so marking this as such.

Newer releases will have this fix though.
