It's probably worth discussing/investigating whether udebs in general still
make sense for d-i in 2019?

It was a design choice made 15 years ago, but disk/network constraints
changed a lot since then. Maybe ditching them entirely would actually
reduce a lot of toil in d-i and make d-i development more flexible?
(Honest question, not trying to insinuate anything)
