fwupd it happens pulls in not only ModemManager but also udisks2, so there are two daemons running in every container as a result of fwupd's presence.

Having discussed with the CPC team, it doesn't make sense to include fwupd in any cloud or container images, unless there's a particular partner image that's used on baremetal and exposes devices for firmware updates.

So since fwupd is only a recommends of ubuntu-server, we can and should just remove this package during the image build.

Leaving the ubuntu-meta task open because we probably do want to refactor the seeds so that such removals are not necessary during the image build.
