Bug#926409: lintian: autopkgtest takes very long to finish



Felix asked me to report the performance data for the lintian testsuite
I'm getting on my new desktop computer.

Let me first say I'm a very casual contributor to Lintian and I'm
certainly not in a position to judge if the testsuite takes too much
time to run or is too extensive by default. Take this as additional data
to make informed decisions :)

On my previous desktop computer (AMD FX-8530, 8GB DDR3 RAM, SATA SSD),
running the testsuite used to take up to 15mins.

Now with the new PC (AMD Ryzen 5900x, 64GB DDR4 RAM, M.2 NVME SSD), it
takes less than 3 minutes. This is the result of running
`private/runtests` from a newly created git clone of the current master
branch:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
All tests successful.
Files=1306, Tests=59485, 178 wallclock secs ( 6.85 usr  2.34 sys +
3356.34 cusr 422.52 csys = 3788.05 CPU)
Result: PASS

The test suite ran for 2 minutes and 59 seconds.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Then again, that's a brand new machine running top of the line
consumer-grade hardware, with a beefy cooler :)

Cheers,
