[Bug 1921692] [NEW] Germinate cannot seed a package from "update" pocket

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement]

Public bug reported:

In LTSes some packages are in universe in the release pocket and in main
in the update pocket.

For example in focal:

$ rmadison -s focal,focal-updates realmd adcli
 realmd | 0.16.3-3               | focal/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x
 realmd | 0.16.3-3               | focal-updates  | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x
 adcli  | 0.9.0-1                | focal/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x
 adcli  | 0.9.0-1                | focal-updates  | i386
 adcli  | 0.9.0-1ubuntu0.20.04.1 | focal-updates  | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x

When these packages are seeded but they have no reverse dependencies,
for instances seeded in the live seed and only main and restricted are
considered (for Ubuntu) then these packages ignored (unknown) by
germinate and not added to the live session.
