Description
Currently, Linux users have to manually install dotnet-runtime-2.1.
Considering both packages are available as Ubuntu packages, the azure-functions-core-tools should simply depend on dotnet-hosting-2.0.8, and with that, remove one step from the installation process.
This experience would be consistent with how this is solved with Homebrew for Mac.

Research direction
The issue does not name a file or test. Start by locating the Ubuntu APT package metadata for azure-functions-core-tools and compare its dependency handling with the Homebrew package; done means the package declares dotnet-hosting-2.0.8 so the manual runtime installation step is no longer required.
