I've added the provides back in. The dep should be resolvable.

The problem is, curtin needs to be installable and be able to install, btrfs-* on all currently supported releases, and the easiest way to achieve that is to use the "compatible" btrfs-tools name across all releases.

Shouldn't it be safe to remove btrfs-tools from cosmic, given above?!
