Add build-depends-on-dh-sysuser error
The canonical debhelper implementation for sysusers.d automation is
dh_installsysusers, provided by debhelper in compat 13 since ~2020.
Another package with a confusing name, dh-sysuser, exists to be used by
the runit source package. It has happened multiple times that developers
were confused by this package, and used it by mistake. The only
supported default implementation for sysusers.d is systemd-sysusers,
which must be the default choice for packages. Alternative implementations
are allowed and supported, but only as alternatives, when systemd is
not installed, like src:opensysusers is already set up to do.
Debhelper knows this and sets up the dependencies correctly for this
purpose when dh_installsysusers is used. This lets people wishing to
build systems without systemd to do so, while ensuring that when systemd
_is_ used, which is the default, the canonical implementation is the
only one installed, reducing variations and thus the support burden.
Add an error when dh-sysuser is used as a build dependency, unless
the user is the runit source package. Developers who are aware can
choose to override the error, but this ensures this package is not
used by mistake.

Drop tag: standards-version-inconsistent
This is currently flagged in 671 packages. Picking up a bunch of
packages at random, this is a false positive in all of them.
A common reason is multiple S-V bumps (often times done at least
once by the Janitor bot) ends up with multiple S-V entries in the
d/ch.
The current logic detects only one instance of it and exits from
there. While we could modify the logic to parse all the lines and
probably pick up the maximum version out of all of them, this would
likely still lead to false positives (and edge case would be a
maintainer downgrading the s-v for backports and taking up some
previous d/ch entries).
A common wording maintainers also use for S-V bumps is
"Declare compliance with Debian Policy 4.7.4" which the current logic
would not detect for mismatches.
As there is no standard way of writing d/ch, lintian would likely not
be the best judge of d/ch related mismatches. Hence, it does not add
value to make this experimental either. There are no overrides for this
as of now, and hence won't have impact on existing checks (and
packages).
