apt autoremove is not removing unused kernels

Bug description:
With the machines I help administer, we have been finding situations
where the /boot directory is filling-up beyond 3 kernels on LUKS
encrypted systems. apt autoremove is not removing old kernels as
expected.
This may also be an issue with unattended-upgrades since I found the
following line commented-out by default:
// Remove unused automatically installed kernel-related packages
// (kernel images, kernel headers and kernel version locked tools).
// Unattended-Upgrade::Remove-Unused-Kernel-Packages "true";
We have had a system with as many as 15 kernel packages installed as a
result of this not working as expected.
The majority of these machines are using Discover to do their package
upgrading, which uses PackageKit as its backend.
