Title:
  Improve default selection of IBus related packages

Status in Ubuntu Kylin:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Currently we have:

  """
  Input methods:

   * (im-config)
   * (ibus)
   * (ibus-gtk3)
   * (ibus-table)
   * (ibus-pinyin)
   * (ibus-pinyin-db-android)
  """

  This is suboptimal in many ways.
  1. ibus-gtk should be included, since we have notable GTK2 applications like 
Firefox and LibreOffice.
  2. ibus-table doesn't provide a working input method by itself, it needs at 
least one of ibus-table-* package to work.
  3. ibus-pinyin is useful for only limited set of people; even Simplified 
Chinese language support defaults to ibus-sunpinyin while UbuntuKylin and 
LinuxDeepin (a noteable Ubuntu-based distro in China) switch to Fcitx 
altogether.

  The conclusion is that the real workhorse IBus related packages would be 
pulled by language support.
  For meta package like ubuntu-desktop, we either leave a barebone IBus (ibus, 
ibus-gtk, ibus-gtk3) or remove IBus altogether.
