Don’t know how to do that cleanly, as the maint scripts receive the
former version being upgraded in argument.
We could mention 9.0.0~exp2 instead, as it will work against dpkg
--compare-versions, but I find it strange to reference a version that
will not exist if we end up uploading 9.0.0.
Now if you feel like uploading 9.0.0~exp2 it’s still better than ~exp1.
In this case I can make these 2 small changes, you do the upload now,
and we rediscuss unstable for the next upload.

From policy :
6.6 Details of unpack phase of installation or upgrade
3. 1. If the package is being upgraded, call:
new-preinst upgrade old-version
6.7 Details of configuration
When we configure a package (this happens with dpkg --install and dpkg
--configure), we first update any conffiles and then call:
postinst configure most-recently-configured-version
