default to offline updates (for debs)

for a while now Aleix and I have been wanting to make updates offline as
it removes a whole category of issues where the various runtime bits and
bobs become incompatible with one another. such as when KIO updates and
suddenly the newly forked kioworkers don't know how to talk to the kio
clients anymore because they speak different protocols. with plasma 5.21
the UX is in a good enough spot for us to try using offline by default
and it's also extended by an automatic background update feature the
user can opt into to have things happen automagically (we do not turn
this on ... yet)
