Philip Roche has proposed merging ~philroche/ubuntu-seeds/+git/ubuntu:feature/mantic-cloud-minimal-remove-needrestart into ~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/+git/ubuntu:mantic.

Commit message:
feat: Remove needrestart and all its dependencies from cloud-minimal-seed

needrestart was only ever a recommended package in previous seeds and after
much discussion we feel that given the non human use case for minimal images,
needrestart does not need to be a dependency of the cloud-minimal seed.

needrestart can be used for non interactive upgrades but given our goal of
aggressively pruning packages for the minimal seed we have decided to remove.

It can of course be installed by users if they need it.

In removing it we also remove all of the non perl-base perl dependencies too
which will save ~47MB
