Support to install packages from ubuntu-archive when installing extra

  When installing extra packages, there are some dependencies may not
  (yet) in the iso (cdrom) but they impact the functionalities of the
  system.

  For instance, in classic stock ubuntu, there is only one
  "linux-oem-22.04" be put into the iso. However, there are many cutting
  edge devices need "linux-oem-22.04{alpha}" to support the
  functionalities (e.g. i915 drm patches, but it works in the
  installation time due to nomodeset). In this case, the
  "linux-oem-22.04" may point to 6.1-oem kernel but the oem meta
  packages are "Depends: linux-oem-22.04d" (which is 6.5-oem).

  To support such senarios, it's crucial to execute a "ubuntu-driver
  list" to detect the necessary packages from ubuntu-archive / OEM
  archive against required kernel after installing bootstrap oem meta
  packages if the networking available.
