Bug description:
  [SRU Justification]

  == Impact ==
  The new postinst hook from bug 1877088 currently requires initramfs-tools 
installed, or installing a kernel would fail. This happens for me on a builder 
chroot trying to build linux-meta of a derivative kernel.

  == Fix ==
  The fix would be to skip running the script if update-initramfs is not 
available. The check was taken from the /etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools 
script which has exactly that check at the beginning.

  == Testcase ==
  Building linux-meta in a sbuild chroot which should again work without the 
messages about verifying links. Reinstalling a kernel on a system with 
update-initramfs existing should still print the messages.

  == Regression Potential ==
  Systems with update-initramfs installed and initrd files might for some 
reason again fail to fix missing links.
