Issue body

This is more of a feature request for snapcraft. That is to have the option with the kernel plugin so that we can use a debian package of the kernel with all customizations done to it so that we don't have to compile and recompile kernel from source to build the kernel .snap. IE, build a kernel, with custom drivers, package it up into a deb, then convert it to a snap using snapcraft.
