We want to be able to provide packaged builds of development branches.
The most straightforward way to do this is a 1:1 correspondence
between branches in the releng tree and variant package names.
We adopt a simple convention: the base package name corresponds to the
master branch, all other branches are named with the base package name
followed by the branch name. So the master branch is the
cryptech-alpha package, the ksng branch is the cryptech-alpha-ksng
branch, and so forth. This isn't a perfect solution, but it's
probably good enough.
In order to do this, we need to generate the debian/control file at
build-time, so that we can generate the list of conflicting packages.
This commit also pulls in a few changes that had collected on the
master branches of various repositories, chiefly because a few of them
were necessary to get it the build to run at all.

In the long run, we should do a better job of cleaning as we go, but
it's a bit tricky to do this without unnecessarily regenerating things
that haven't changed (particularly bitstreams). Probably requires
minor refactoring of the Makefile rules, perhaps with a holding pen
for things (like bitstreams) that we really do not want to regenerate
unless something has changed.
The current compromise is ugly in places, but works well enough, so
this is not a high priority.

Undoubtedly doesn't work yet, and still needs doc, but perhaps now
ready for testing on build machine.
