Title:
  Only Recommend rsyslog | system-log-daemon

Status in gce-compute-image-packages package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gce-compute-image-packages source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released
Status in gce-compute-image-packages source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * gce-compute-image-packages depends on rsyslog | system-log-daemon
  while there is need for images where none of those dependencies are
  present.

   * The upload demotes the dependencies to Recommends

  [Test Case]

   * This is seen when the package is fixed:
  $ apt show gce-compute-image-packages | grep rsyslog

  WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in
  scripts.

  Recommends: google-cloud-sdk, rsyslog | system-log-daemo

   * google-cloud-sdk is recommended only on Xenial and Trusty

  [Regression Potential]

   * Since by default recommended packages are installed with the
  packages recommending them the change should not cause issues in image
  generation nor during package upgrades. When an image build process
  uses apt's --no-install-recommends option, that would result rsyslog
  missing from the image.
