without this line `apt install wireguard` pulls in Debian's kernel +
firmware which confilcts with pve-firmware - forcing users to install
via `apt install --no-install-recommends wireguard-tools` in order
to get the userspace utils.

For Debian's upstream kernel the linux-image-amd64 provides the
modules [0] - since pve-kernel- at KVNAME@ already provides linux-image
this should be the place where we add the provides

versioned dependency added since wireguard has a versioned dependency
on wireguard-modules.

* quickly tested by building a kernel with this patch - installing it in a VM
  and running `apt install wireguard` afterwards
