Bug#884678: lintian: please consider debhelper compat 11 as stable

I don't understand why this happens. Changing this does certainly change
the default in tests. For example, here is "changelog-file-symlink"'s 
debian/control:

  1 Source: changelog-file-symlink
  2 Priority: optional
  3 Section: devel
  4 Maintainer: Debian Lintian Maintainers <lintian-maint@debian.org>
  5 Standards-Version: 4.1.2
  6 Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 11~)

.. so I have no idea why this fails the following test in
checks/debhelper.pm:

    unless ($bdepends->implies("debhelper (>= ${dh_bd_version}~)")){

$dh_bd_version is indeed 11 here.
