It was installed because CraftCMS depends on it :)

According to term.log - unattended-upgrade performed the update 
2018-01-06 06:41 and every package was updated (including php7.1-mbstring)

Just two minutes after that, unattended-upgrade runs again and removes 
php7.1-mbstring and only that package.
I can't find any activity on the server on that time (no users logged in 
and such).

So something triggered unattended-upgrade to do this,

hmm
