[Bug 1983008] [NEW] Install wpasupplicant by default on RISC-V images

[Alexandre Ghiti]

Public bug reported:

[Impact]

Most of RISC-V boards come with a Wifi chipset and some (like the
licheeRV) don't even have an ethernet port. To ease user's life, we
should install wpasupplicant by default so they can use the Wifi.

[Test Plan]

Build a VisionFive image (which is the only one that supports the Wifi
for now) and at first boot, try to configure the Wifi using netplan.

[Where problems could occur]

There is always the risk to break the image for other architectures, and
other RISC-V boards.

** Affects: livecd-rootfs (Ubuntu)
