When installing Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and choosing the proprietary Nvidia drivers, they seem to be marked as "auto". Consequently, any subsequent `apt` commands recommend to call `apt autoremove`:
```
root@ubuntu-nvidia:~# apt-get install htop
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
htop is already the newest version (2.2.0-2build1).
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:

Use 'apt autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 142 not upgraded.
```
Calling `apt autoremove`, of course results in removal of drivers which are necessary for X11 to start. At the next boot attempt, the user will be presented with just a black screen and possibly some information about a successful fsck on /dev/sda2. |
[Impact]
The installer doesn't install the nvidia-driver-* metadata on 20.04.3 Desktop, which means that on
upgrade the user will be prompted to remove the actual driver packages as the final step of the install,
which will likely break their user session.
[Test plan]
This test plan is for the fix in ubuntu-release-upgrader:
On a system with a nvidia GPU:
* Install 20.04.3 with proprietary drivers enabled:
https://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/focal/ubuntu-20.04.3-desktop-amd64.iso
* Reboot
* sudo apt -s autoremove should list quite a few libnvidia* packages, including libnvidia-gl-*
* do-release-upgrade -p
-> At the end of the upgrade process, the only nvidia packages that should be up for removal are kernel modules for obsolete kernel
On the nvidia-enabled system (test that the fix doesn't break systems that are working)
* Install 21.10 with proprietary drivers enabled
https://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/impish/ubuntu-21.10-desktop-amd64.iso
* Fix the sources.list as noted there: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades#Update_sources.list
* dpkg -l | grep libnvidia-gl- should return one package
* sudo apt -s autoremove shouldn't list that same package
* do-release-upgrade -p
-> fully functional system at the end including nvidia drivers
[Potential regressions]
Potential regressions include:
* Crashing the upgrader, preventing users from upgrading
* Installing the nvidia proprietary stack on systems without user consent
* Totally breaking the graphics stack for desktop users
