update-initramfs: Make "-c -k all" options useful again
"update-initramfs -c -k all" used to re-create initramfs images if
they had been deleted without using "update-initramfs -d", as it used
the state directory to determine which kernel versions should have
them.
Since commit f39625a "update-initramfs: Make "-k all" take over other
initramfs images", it ignores the state directory and is almost
equivalent to "update-initramfs -u -k all".
Change it to operate on all installed kernel versions. This will
ignore which kernel versions suppressed initramfs generation, but
I think it's reasonable to assume users won't use these options
if they have installed such kernels.
Closes: #926401
