The merge of https://review.opendev.org/c/starlingx/root/+/861819 has 
change how Debian packaging works!

For downloaded packages, the file ...

*stx-tools/debian-mirror-tools/config/debian/common/base-bullseye.lst*

... used to govern BOTH package download and inclusion in the ISO.


That's no longer the case.


Now 'base-bullseye.lst' only covers download, and the file ...

*cgts-root/build-tools/stx/debian-image.inc*

... governs inclusion of downloaded packages into the iso.


Why the change? This allows us to trim down the size of the Debian ISO 
by removing dev packages that were only needed to support package 
building prerequisites.
