I can't immediately say where the right place to add this dependency
is, since I don't run the selftest images myself, but I can say that
adding mtools to everyone's minimal image is not something I'd like to
see.
At a minimum, can't the CORE_IMAGE_EXTRA_INSTALL variable be leveraged
for this ? It's there to be used for cases like this.
