There is a plan to remove resolvconf from the Ubuntu Server image.
resolvconf integrated with other parts of the system in 2 ways:
 * hooks invoked on change (/etc/resolvconf/update.d/)
 * resolvconf tool (invoked with -a and -d or -u)

Packages which install files into /etc/resolvconf/update.d are:
- dnsmasq: This may be mostly covered by systemd-resolved itself (the dns
  caching path).
- resolvconf: This probably isn't necessary in systemd-resolved path.
- unbound: This is another "validating, recursive, caching DNS resolver".

The list of Depends/Suggests/Recommends on resolvconf.
