tasks/networked{,-common}: Stop using nscd.

Rationale behind this:
  * main server, terminal servers, workstations, and minimal installations
    (all LDAP clients) have nslcd installed caching most of the LDAP queries
    requested by the client, and the few local accounts don't need to be
    cached.
  * roaming workstations use sssd (also caching LDAP + Kerberos queries)
  * standalone installations only have a single user (not much caching needed).

The overall gain of removing nscd from networked Debian Edu systems is
to reduce delays between changes in LDAP and those changes being
available on the clients.

tasks/networked: Minimal profile installations are Debian Edu network clients

Make sure the education-networked package gets installed on Minimal
profile installations. This e.g. assures that libpam-krb5 becomes
available on installed systems with Minimal profile. Without this
PAM module, user login fails on Minimal profile installations.

The idea of the tasks/networked meta package / tasksel task is that all
requirements for clients on a Debian Edu network get installed. This
includes the Minimal installation profile (as it is intended to be used
for non-desktop installation on a Debian Edu site).

This change will also lead to network-manager being installed on systems
configure as "Minimal" Edu machines. This is intended.

(Closes: #1146479)
