Bug#26512: Fixes to make dpkg-gencontrol and dpkg-shlibdeps work over NFS

[Anders Hammarquist <iko@iko.pp.se>]

Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.4.0.27

The Linux NFS client (at least in 2.1) does not allow renaming of a file to a
file which is open. Since dpkg-gencontrol and dpkg-shlibdeps first open files
and substvars, respectively, and they try to move the newly created version
into the same spot, they need to be careful about closing the old file before
attempting the rename. They are not. Patches follow.

Regards,
/Anders
