uscan does currently not work for projects which rely on GitHub

I'd appreciate some feedback. Is that a sensible solution
1. for ibus
2. for other affected projects
Btw, related bug report: https://bugs.debian.org/1019696
Haven't heard of downloadmangle before, but this might be a good
approach when upstream (at GitHub) is providing a tarball on the
release page. Otherwise it might be better to just use the download
link on the tags page (as suggested by uscan(1) man page).
Pros of using downloadmangle:
* Ensures reproducibility since the upstream-provided tarball will
not change, while auto-generated tarball from github tags could
change depending on how github handles it (check the
reproducible-builds mailing list for related discussion).
Downs of using downloadmangle:
* Not using the very "original form of upstream source code", will
contain boilerplate files such as autotools-related configure, etc.
