Modernize phosh-core a bit

While working on !10 (merged) notice some things that might be nice to have but might not be as straight forward:

• phosh-core: Prefer pipewire over pulse

  It's the future so let's prep for that.

• d/control: Suggest firefox-esr-mobile-config

  This give a hint that it exists without pulling in firefox-esr itself.

• phosh-core: Suggest systemd-coredump

  We mention it all around but don't give uses any hint via the packagig system yet.

• phosh-core: Allow phosh-osk-stub as on screen keyboard

  The default is squeekbard but architectures that have trouble building Rust (or one gtk-rs) can still use the metapackge.

• phosh-core: Drop purple-lurch

  Chatty recommends it so it's pulled in by default.

Any comments? I'm happy to drop individual commits in case they're dubious - having this modernized a bit for bookworm would be great.

A bit unsure about that one, chatty does recommend it, but it won't do anything when using --no-install-recommends. Maybe simply move this to phosh-full's dependencies instead?

Hmm...do we "support" (in the sense off: everything will work) when using --no-install-recommends ?

Recommends are installed by default so i'd say: if you use --no-install-recommends you should be aware that things can break. This would allow people that don't use chatty for xmpp to avoid purple-lurch.

Does mobian avoid installing recommends when building images?

Does mobian avoid installing recommends when building images?

Yes, but we pull in manually selected recommends, so it's not a full --no-install-recommends setup.

As you pointed out, it's only needed for (encrypted?) xmpp, so only a fraction of actual users, feel free to move on with this.

Yes, but we pull in manually selected recommends, so it's not a full --no-install-recommends setup.

Alright. I don't want to make image building for mobian harder than necessary so feel free to add it back. Ideally an install including all recommends should work, let me know if I can help to work towards that (we dropped --no-install-recommends` in PureOS for byzantium, not sure yet how well it'll work out for crimson).

resolved all threads

Looks good, however I just saw #1030128 which would be nice to address as part of this MR :)
