resolved: break mDNS, remove conflict with avahi
Feedback from users is to prefer breaking mDNS rather than
avoiding avahi. Ship a drop-in to disable mDNS by default,
so that users relying on mDNS for reachability can hopefully
notice it and mask it before upgrading

systemd: conflict with dracut on arm64
Same as the systemd-nspawn/arm64 changes of 257.4-4. As correctly
pointed out on the reopened #1079329 this combination also creates
incompatibilities, so add an explicit package conflict to fix this
occurrence too as requested by the reporter.

Drop systemd-nspawn on arm64
The ctte has declared that the way the systemd-nspawn binary works
on arm64 is incompatible with their decision to leave in place a
recently introduced change in the debian-specific base-files
package, which caused a dpkg regression.
Furthermore, the nspawn tool is being used to inflict pain on the
maintainer, and induce burnout.
Regrettably, the only safe solution to ensure this package is
compliant with this decision is to drop the binary on arm64, as
all reasonable alternatives put forward have been rejected:

Drop systemd-resolved package

compliant with this decision is to drop it, as

Move leftover resolved files to its own package

some time ago. Move them over.

against it systemd-side.
