Thanks Steve for the ping for awareness!

It still all is in main, and I checked the old MIR bug 1536871 for any
extra context that might have been mentioned there.

It already is in desktop-common (and due to that in all desktop tasks).
It is there as recommends which I appreciate for the rare case that someone 
really runs into issues due to the package.

It also is in system-image for ubuntu core.

And finally it also is in d-i-requirements for being on the disk image
if needed by d-i.

I checked in a XLD container and a cloud image with only main enabled that we 
can install it and how much "extra" that would be on small server instances.

It is 13.9 MB extracted and 3742 kB of archives which seems ok space-
wise.

The content will be:
- a bunch of libs (ok)
- a bunch of glib-* packages (still sort of ok)
- dconf-service and some related dbus things (dbus runs anyway, just one more 
endpoint)
- bolt (system daemon to manage thunderbolt 3 devices)
  That service seems well isolated and only runs if thunderbolt are found (udev)

Overall I agree that it makes sense to add this to the server meta task
as well, but also as recommends for some flexibility where needed.

Since version 1.1.0 the requested fwupdate no more is important, but 
fwupd+fwupd-signed are.
So we use those as recommends.

I prepared a seed change and will propose it for a second Team pair of
eyes to commit
