Subject: [PATCH] Add isc-dhcp-server to example debootstrap script

Debian 13+ no longer include isc-dhcp-server (or any DHCP client it
seems) in their default minimal stack. This can cause cloud-init to fail
early and render newly provsiioned VMs unbootable. We add it to the
example here for posterity.
