Add `apt autoremove`

Wow this really exploded while I slept.
@girish That is not a correct conclusion.
@mehdi is correct above.Even with Cloudron not installing anything new, the system will over time end up with orphaned dependencies that can be removed. This includes old kernels.
It will not harm the system, only keep it less cluttered and do the
right thing
(tm).Please do the needful.

@mehdi Why give the admin yet another button when it can be eliminated altogether? I'd rather do it on CLI then.
Point is, I don't want to see
autoremove
whenever I run apt or have to deal with kernels filling up for poorly planned partitions or side-effects of OS vendor releasing lots of kernels and not cleaning up. -
@robi said in Add `apt autoremove`:

autoremove
gets integrated in the Cloudronapt update
routine, you wouldn't "see" it?! -
@necrevistonnezr No, as it would be run regularly in the background.
Hence when I run
apt install blah
manually, it has a low chance of finding it needs to remove something viaautoremove
.
