We already suggest exfat-utils, which in turn should pull in exfat-fuse
(via Recommends).

I don't have a strong opinion on whether to bump that to recommends.
It's been a while since exfat-utils was added as suggests and it's
probably in more wide-spread use nowadays, so I'd be ok with bumping it.

Martin, any objections/thoughts?
