#5785: Show optional packages non-functional

Comment(by stippi):
Yes, Installer CopyEngine just unzips everything in _packages_. Programmer
laziness detected. I've made sure that all packages extract to the same
destination, i.e. /boot and hard-coded this in Installer. If we want to
enable the user selection process of which packages get installed, we need
to work on Installer. I would say that packages which depend on other
packages are left out of the optional ones at all (i.e. get installer
regardless and are not displayed as optional). The distinction could be
the presence of certain attributes. I could probably look into all this
starting next week.
