Bug#841852: ITP: use-package -- use-package declaration for simplifying your .emacs

As with your parallel ITP for bind-key, this seems like a very generic
package name, and gives no indication that it is to do with Emacs.

I suggest talking to an Emacs-related packaging team (for example
Debian Emacs addons team <pkg-emacsen-addons@lists.alioth.debian.org>
seems to maintain several packages) about whether there is an Emacs
addon naming convention you can follow. From a quick glance at the packages
already in Debian, it might be conventional to disambiguate the purpose
of these packages by calling them something like use-package-el, or (if
obtained via https://melpa.org/ which appears to be an Emacs equivalent of
CPAN) elpa-use-package.

(Disclaimer: I know nothing about Emacs, other than that it is a highly
extensible text editor. Please talk to someone who knows more than me
before proceeding.)
