  Jockey should install the linux-$flavour metapackage

Bug description:
  Neither binary graphics drivers nor dkms depends on the linux-headers
  any longer. This means that we need Jockey to at least try to install
  the correct linux-$flavour metapackage so that users get the correct
  linux headers together with linux updates.

  In raring we already do this in ubuntu-drivers-common and software-
  properties-gtk. In precise we could build upon what we have thanks to
  LP: #567699 and reuse the code from u-d-c.

  Note: while it's true that Ubiquity already does the right thing, this
  bug report aims to cover cases in which, for example, the metapackages
  are not there any more for some reason or because users have installed
  a different kernel flavour
