While finishing some half-adopted packages I changed them to source
format 3.0 (quilt) instead of adding quilt to debian/rules.  Everything
seems to be working fine so far :)

The converted packages are

  libanydata-perl
  libclass-dbi-loader-relationship-perl
  libxml-simple-perl
  libxml-smart-perl

I think we can just slowly begin to adapt the new format.  It is a bit
faster to just

  mkdir debian/source; echo '3.0 (quilt)' >debian/source/format

than adding the quilt stuff to debian/control, debian/rules and
debian/README.source by hand.
