Bug description:
[Impact]
Unattended-upgrades keeps versioned kernel packages because they don't match
known kernel package patterns:
...
Keeping auto-removable linux-modules-4.18.0-14-generic package(s) because it
would also remove the following packages which should be kept in this step:
linux-image-unsigned-4.18.0-14-generic
...
For reproduction see LP: #1795696, but running u-u with --verbose.
And APT does not apply proper kernel-version based protection to it.
[Test case]
linux-image-unsigned should popup in the same list in 01autoremove-kernels as
linux-signed-image, and should be autoremovable iff it's signed counterpart is
autoremovable.
[Regression potential]
Not really any, it's just an additional string in the entry. The only
difference really possible therefore is that the set of autoremovable packages
changes and unattended-upgrades and friends might autoremove different sets of
them.
