toward more sane udeb building

[Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>]

dpkg-dev 1.9 has a nice new feature in dpkg-gencontrol for udeb
building. Where before a rules file that build a udeb looked something
like:

	# Don't write your stupid guesses to debian/files.
	dh_gencontrol -- -fdebian/files~
	# Register file manually.
	dpkg-distaddfile $(FILENAME) debian-installer $(PRIORITY)
	dh_builddeb --filename=$(FILENAME)

We can now instead just say:

	dh_gencontrol -- -n$(FILENAME)
	dh_builddeb --filename=$(FILENAME)

Of course, this needs a build dep on dpkg-dev 1.9.

PS: I'm moved, and lack only a testbed machine and a better net
    connection before I can get back to doing a lot of work on d-i.
