What type of PR is this?

/kind flake

What this PR does / why we need it:

During VM image build, a number of packages are downloaded but not
installed, since they may interfere with some testing. Then at runtime,
where required, the packages are installed from cache and used.
However, between image build and runtime it's possible the repository
contents change, which will invalidate the package cache. Since the
--no-download --ignore-missing options were used, the install will
fail.

Ref: containers/automation_images#95

Fortunately, when it comes to the docker packages, no other dependencies
are required and so apt-get isn't required. Switch to using a simple
dpkg install command on the necessary files. If this ever breaks due
to new dependencies, the list of files may simply be updated.

How to verify it

The setup stage of the conformance tests will pass.

Which issue(s) this PR fixes:

Fixes containers/automation_images#95

Note: This requires using a customized Ubuntu image w/ restored docker
packages in a cache directory - mistakenly removed during original image
creation.

Make use of a hand-customized Ubuntu image with manually downloaded
(cached) docker packages.  This is necessary to support execution of the
conformance tests long-term.
