Thanks for the attention to this issue that effects every debian version 
including Mint back to Trusty 14.04.
I copied your version 4 script into my /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal.
I will post the entire output resulting from the next kernel that gets added.
I have a 64 bit version of Xubuntu Xenial Xerus (development branch) 16.04 at 
present.
I like your notes in this version:
#     In the common case, this results in exactly two kernels saved, but it can
#    result in three kernels being saved.  It's better to err on the
#    side of saving too many kernels than saving too few.
That is exactly how I've always thought it should work.
