This makes APT be appropriately aggressive about removing packages it added due to `Recommends` or `Depends` if the packages they were added for are removed (even if other packages only have the softer `Suggests` relationship).

Instead of applying it only for the final `chroot`, this adds a chroot helper function to apply it appropriately for every chroot, including making sure that we find `chroot` in our current host `PATH` in case it's in a strange place.

when running in the chroot, it would be expected to have a Debian-ish environment,
most important the PATH variable. Otherwise the host PATH would be used which can wrong
for Debian, especially if the host is Arch (which doesn't have /bin, /sbin or /usr/sbin).

This file is one APT creates to make sure we don't "autoremove" our currently in-use kernel, which doesn't really apply to debootstraps/Docker images that don't even have kernels installed.

Later versions of `apt` are smart enough to just create this directory if it's missing, but Lucid balks (just like `gnupg` and `gpgv` aren't in the Required set so don't come in a minbase -- good ol' Lucid).

This results in a dramatic improvement in the size of individual "apt-get update" layers (on a clean wheezy base, from "29.88 MB" down to "8.273 MB").

Note that the archive does _not_ have a symlink from oldstable-lts to squeeze-lts, hence the change from using "${suite}" to not using it in here and just using the string "squeeze-lts" directly regardless of whether we're building a "squeeze" image or an "oldstable" image.

These new scripts are streamlined such that, for example, "contrib/mkimage/debootstrap" is _only_ responsible for filling a directory with the results of running debootstrap, and it can accept any arbitrary arguments.
