Even when it's not really build time requirement for images I understand
the scenario above and this seems like better place than packagegroup
where it was before.

My only concern is small initramfs images like
meta-initramfs/recipes-bsp/images/initramfs-kexecboot-image.bb:inherit image

which could in turn be DEPENDS of real virtual/kernel causing circular
dependency.
