[OE-core] [PATCH v2 00/33] Accumulated patches for deb packaging

[Andreas Oberritter]

These are most of my patches which accumulated since our distro
switched from opkg to dpkg and apt two years ago. They were tested
thoroughly on dora and krogoth and just a little bit on master.

Most importantly, this adds support for Debian's update-alternatives
on rootfs creation time. For this to work, the recently added option
'--force-script-chrootless' must be passed to dpkg.

There's also a patch adding BAD_RECOMMENDATIONS for deb packages.

One patch renames dpkg-start-stop to start-stop-daemon. There's also
a recipe in meta-oe with the same name, which should be removed later.

v2: Patches 1, 3, 20, 21, 23 and 28 were modified and annotated.

Andreas Oberritter (33):
