Include removed providers when preparing packages

As of recently, we have a possibility to schedule providers for removal.
They should be removed once they got released the last time - with the
removal note added to the documentation. We had a special step in the
process to generate documentation and build packages, but this is pretty
easy to forget it and miss such package when release is prepared.

We modify the tooling slightly - removed providers will be included
in release preparation even if they are techniclaly suspended and
would be excluded (if they were not removed).
