apt_package resource should support source

[kmf]

I think the apt_package resource should support a source, you can use something like dpkg_package but this doesn't handle package dependencies.

    remote_file '/tmp/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb' do
      source 'https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb'
      action :create
    end

    apt_update 'update'

    execute 'install Chrome' do
      command 'apt install -y /tmp/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb'
      action :run
    end   

The Dream:

   apt_update 'update'

   apt_package 'install Chrome' do
       source 'https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb'
       action :install
   end

This should be migrated to the chef/chef repo as the functionality has been moved over. See: https://github.com/chef/chef/blob/v15.7.4/lib/chef/resource/apt_package.rb for more details.
