Can someone describe the process that package-autoremove goes through to
create the list of packages that are "safe" to be removed?  When I use
it, I see a few packages that I have connected to other packages
(ex. 'diminish being used by 'use-package).  Is there anything I should
do to signal to package-autoremove that I know a package is needed?

The package-autoremove is giving a list of packages to be removed, but
many of the packages seem to be dependents of other packages, so I don't
want to remove them.  How does package-autoremove decide on which
packages can be removed?  Can I force it to keep some of the packages?
