Bug description:
  [Impact]

  Some workloads, for example SQL Server, require PMEM support from
  different modules for performance reasons. Most of this modules are
  included in the linux-modules-extra package but linux-azure doesn't
  install it by default.

  Move these modules to the linux-modules package so they are installed
  by default: nd_blk.ko, nd_pmem.ko, device_dax.ko, dax_hmem.ko,
  kmem.ko, dax_pmem.ko, dax_pmem_compat.ko, virtio_pmem.ko ,
  nd_virtio.ko.

  (Some modules are not available depending on the kernel version)

  [Test Plan]

  The modules listed below should be included in the linux-modules
  package instead of in the linux-modules-extra package.

  [Where problems could occur]

  The additional modules shouldn't cause any troubles and in case of
  problem they can be blacklisted or removed from linux-modules.
