initramfs-tools still assumes that official kernel packages will call

There is no /etc/kernel-img.con on a fresh debootstrap sid. Installing a
kernel leads to:

|Setting up linux-image-2.6.31-1-amd64 (2.6.31-1) ...
|Running depmod.

As far as I understand debconf, there must be a template and input() for
${package_name}/postinst/create-kimage-link-$version in order to get a
value saved. Since I did not find it I guess that this can't work.
If the bootloader is palo than the answer is ignored anyway so the
question is not required there.
kernel-img.conf(5) says that do_symlinks defaults to yes.
This could also fix piuparts [0].
