Jonathan/dpkg build

Jonathan Maw requested to merge jonathanmaw/buildstream:jonathan/dpkg-build into master

This merge request is WIP as this is definitely not the final form. A proper implementation is pending changes to how public data is handled.

So far, the packages generated by the dpkg-deploy element are extremely similar to what was generated (then discarded) by the dpkg-build element, known exceptions being:

  • The file sizes are slightly different.
  • The file creation times are different. discarded were 2011-11-11, etc. generated were 1970-01-01.

I will also probably have to rethink the dpkg-data format to be something more extensible, but that is cumbersome to work with until public data changes.
