Get kernel package info (New)

[fernando79513]

WARNING: This modifies com.canonical.certification::sru-server

Description

We have added a new test to get the kernel package and add it as a resource job.
For snaps, it is quite simple, as there is already a functionality in checkbox (system.get_kernel_snap)
In the case of classic images, following this comment in mattermost we:

• Find the linux-modules: linux-modules-{uname -r}
• Get the source from the package metadata: apt-cache show linux-modules-{uname -r} -> Find "Source:"

These packages correspond to the ones in https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/+git/kernel-versions/plain/info/kernel-series.yaml

@Hook25 Let me know what do you think about having this information in a resource job. I could move directly to the checkbox submission as suggested in the ticket.

@boukeas This implementation differs a bit with your approach of walking the apt dependency, but after reading the mentioned thread, I think this should be enough.

This is a known limitation of the workflow/the debian package, feel free to disregard that
