Bug Description

When using autoinstall (https://canonical-subiquity.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/intro-to-autoinstall.html) to do an offline installation of Ubuntu since 21.10, the ubuntu-desktop-minimal package will never be successfully installed since there is no way to prompt snapd to skip the Firefox installation.

As a consequence of moving the firefox dpkg to a snap (and therefore online) package, the firefox application should be removed as a dependency of the ubuntu-desktop-minimal package and not be installed to enable seamless offline execution of autoinstall.
