Thanks for the pointers! To be honest, it was still a little confusing, but
after some experimentation I figured out a few things.

 - kernel is already included in the image
    (I believe in meta-openembedded/meta-oe/recipes-core/packagegroups/
packagegroup-boot.bb
     in the RRECOMMENDS_${PN} definition)
   thus, it is not needed in my IMAGE_INSTALL extensions

 - kernel-image gets me the Image-4.14.16+gdfe1b13 kernel binary into /boot/
   this is despite not finding any recipe file(s) that puts that file
        into the FILES_${KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME}-image variable

 - kernel-dev will get me the additional files
      (System.map-..., config-..., Module.symvers-..., etc.)
    if I need them
