[yocto] are there any more obvious candidates for ASSUME_PROVIDED?

  asked about this once upon a time ... are there any other
possibilities for adding to ASSUME_PROVIDED in local.conf.sample,
given that there are surely more native utilities that are fairly safe
by now?

  for example, it's still weird that current default ASSUME_PROVIDED
includes bzip2 but not gzip, especially since the quick start guide:

https://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html

lists *both* of them as required on your build host.

  it also seems odd that that list includes git but not subversion.
anyway, you get the idea.
