Like you want. One possible approach is to generate them at build
time based on the current vendor, i.e. have debian/foo.postinst.in
and apply some sed magic to get the result you want.
For .install file, maybe you can take advantage of the fact that they can
be executable scripts nowadays and just embed the dpkg-vendor check in
the .install script...
