There's no point in passing them as parameters everywhere.
This changes the behaviour in some places:
1/ When we process the non-explicitly included packages (for COMPLETE=1),
we used to never take Recommends/Suggests into account, now we do. But
the only thing that will be changed is the ordering with some
Recommended packages being included before their depending package.
2/ When we process the EXTRANONFREE image, this one was always including
Recommends and Suggests, and it's now respecting the setting too.
It's required by debian-installer and cryptsetup >= 2.4.0 no longer
recommends it, so it ends up missing in the netinst image.
base-installer then fails to honor the apt-setup request and the
resulting system is unbootable because the initramfs doesn't contain
anything to unlock the encrypted partitions. :-(
Using the new generate_firmware_patterns script, generate a patterns
file in /firmware/dep11/<package>.patterns as we add a firmware
package onto media.
Deal with size changes as these are added/removed, and add them to the
md5sum.txt file on media too.
The source code doesn't use the MODULE_FIRMWARE() macro so the machinery
implemented in src:firmware-nonfree wouldn't help. Extract alias info
manually once, and make note to keep an eye on further updates (e.g. via
a crontab on d-i.debian.org).
The related code seems to have been useful a long time ago (the need to use
an RLE file and to reduce the number of colours to 16 has been dropped as of
syslinux version 3.62). So replace obsolete code with a simple cp command.

Shift the extra_image helper function from boot-x86 to common.sh to
help.
Call extra_image with || true for now on boot-arm64 so we don't fail
builds straight away. Remove that || true later once we're happy
things work.
I was just bitten by this problem in Kali where the ISO was not
containing the expected packages because tools/sort_deps was accepting
"xserver-xorg-input-libinput-udeb" as a solution to
"xserver-xorg-input-all | xserver-xorg-input-driver" and the
udeb was among the package already selected for inclusion on the
ISO.
With this change, tools/sort_deps will look for udeb to solve
udeb dependencies and it will look for non-udeb to solve non-udeb
dependencies.
FTR, here's the sort_deps.log extract proving my assertion:
xserver-xorg Dep: (OR xserver-xorg-input-all xorgxrdp xserver-xorg-input-aiptek xserver-xorg-input-elographics xserver-xorg-input-evdev xserver-xorg-input-evdev-udeb xserver-xorg-input-joystick xserver-xorg-input-kbd xserver-xorg-input-libinput xserver-xorg-input-libinput-udeb xserver-xorg-input-mouse xserver-xorg-input-mtrack xserver-xorg-input-multitouch xserver-xorg-input-mutouch xserver-xorg-input-synaptics xserver-xorg-input-void xserver-xorg-input-wacom xserver-xorg-input-xwiimote ) soft_depend 1
