Patch from Raphael Geissert. + [RA] Load Lintian::Data objects only once. Patch from Raphael Geissert.

Thanks, Joey Hess. (Closes: #517629) + [ADB] Use Lintian::Relation::Version when determining whether the installed version of man supports the --warnings option. * checks/menus: + [RA] Cache the reference to the section list.
