    d/rules: Use `DEB_VERSION_UPSTREAM` instead of parsing `dpkg-parsechangelog`
    
    Fixes: lintian: debian-rules-parses-dpkg-parsechangelog

commit 5e76f53e984dd828fe5cd78fb04ae441920c37c3
Author: Gioele Barabucci <gioele@svario.it>
Date:   Sun Dec 7 20:54:57 2025 +0100

    d/rules: Fix separate compilation of any/all packages
    
    The concurrent merge of commit 87acf8f and MR!2 lead to a `d/rules` that
    mixed the classic `debhelper`-based structure with the standard `dh` sequence.
    
    That combination leads to subtle bugs. In particular compiling `arch-any` and
    `arch-all` binary packages separately breaks in various ways.
    
    The merge also broke the overrides for `dh_gencontrol` and other `dh`
    tools.
    
    This commit converts the change introduced in 87acf8f to a standard `dh`
    override.
    
    Closes: #1122141

testing migrations

excuses:
- Migrates after: glibc
- Migration status for libtool (2.5.4-7 to 2.5.4-9): BLOCKED: Maybe temporary, maybe blocked but Britney is missing information (check below)
- Issues preventing migration:
- ∙ ∙ Missing build on riscv64
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest deferred on riscv64: missing arch:riscv64 build
- ∙ ∙ Autopkgtest for cyrus-imapd/3.12.1-2: amd64: Pass, arm64: Test triggered (failure will be ignored), i386: Failed (not a regression) ♻ (reference ♻), ppc64el: Pass, s390x: Pass
- ∙ ∙ Lintian check waiting for test results on riscv64 - info
- ∙ ∙ Too young, only 2 of 5 days old
- ∙ ∙ Depends: libtool glibc
- Additional info (not blocking):
- ∙ ∙ Piuparts tested OK - https://piuparts.debian.org/sid/source/libt/libtool.html
- ∙ ∙ Ignoring non-reproducibility on amd64 (not a regression) - info ♻
- ∙ ∙ Ignoring non-reproducibility on arm64 (not a regression) - info ♻
- Not considered
