Specify upstream commit hash in the changelog
I've chosen commit 5e90385d9d289c61b8b4eebbbf393d3429ff20b4, dated
2013-01-17, which matches the previous firmware-free. There are more
recent changes to usbdux in linxu-firmware.git, but unfortunately they
changed only the source and not the binaries.

genorig.py: Make orig tarballs really reproducible
- Override umask while extracting/exporting files
- Override user and group names in tarball
[bwh: Cherry-picked from firmware-nonfree commit
013238c36401354fb14d417cd89273126da8336d. Don't mention this in the
changelog since we haven't released an unreproducible tarball for this
package.]

check_upstream.py: Reimplement check for unpackaged firmware
Now that we use an upstream tarball, checking for the presence of a
file isn't enough - we need to compare with the configuration.

commit c074120a0ca57f6b22612bc3945d75671010afef
Author: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
Date: Sun May 22 23:25:45 2016 +0100
Convert to a non-native package with linux-firmware.git as upstream
- Add patterns to upstream exclusions for all non-free and undistributable files
- Add a genorig.py script that uses them to generate an upstream tarball
- Move configuration under debian/config; remove all firmware files
- Change gencontrol.py and check_upstream.py to work with this arrangement

[bwh: Cherry-picked from firmware-nonfree commit
d599c6ca3fc04c6a7539b7c9e2cbade63ddea51b. For firmware-free, check for

Include all symlinks in package descriptions
We need to resolve the symlink target based on its containing
directory in order to pair it up with the real file. Otherwise
this only works this for symlinks that are installed directly in
/lib/firmware.

Move creation and deletion of bug-presubj links out of build and clean rules
We can't easily add to the 'clean' commands provided by linux-support
and we certainly shouldn't replace them.
