Public bug reported:

In xenial and earlier, apparmor depends on initramfs-tools.  In zesty
and later, this dependency has been dropped, as explained in the Debian
changelog for 2.9.0-3+exp1 and merged into Ubuntu in 2.10.95-4ubuntu1:

  * Drop dependency from apparmor on initramfs-tools: the early modules
    loading code that needed it was removed a while ago (Closes: #771240).

This is a wrong dependency in xenial as well, which also includes no
early boot code.  We should drop this dependency, to support building of
images with initramfs-tools removed for systems that we know don't
require an initramfs.
