[OE-core] [PATCH V3 2/4] package_manager.py: use 'purge' instead of 'remove' in case of deb

We need to use 'purge' instead of 'remove' for debian package backend when
removing packages at rootfs time. This is because that 'remove' command for
'dpkg' and 'apt-get' does not remove configuration files.
