fix(ci): stop chasing apt-utils' own debconf notice, document why

Browse Source 
Verified live, twice: bundling apt-utils with another package (first
attempt) and installing it fully alone, first (second attempt) both
still print debconf's "delaying package configuration" notice exactly
once per job. It fires during apt-utils' own first-ever install, before
debconf considers it "installed" -- no install ordering this workflow
controls can pre-seed that. Reverted to the simpler bundled form (the
separate-step version added a step for zero measured benefit) and
documented it as accepted/unfixable, same class as the runs-on/
checkout-hint noise already left alone.
