Drop redundant tags: malformed-contact and too-many-contacts
dpkg does the validation for these as of now, and would not allow
more than one maintainer. It also performs email validation already
so there is no real use for lintian to also flag malformed contacts
when none can make it to .changes file realistically.
One of the points mentioned earlier was "given that we have tools
such as mergechanges from devscripts, that might end up mangling the
.changes file into an invalid one for example (where dpkg is long out
of the loop)" -- that does make sense but building in an unstable chroot
will always use an updated dpkg. If one runs lintian by hand, that also
has a versioned depends on "dpkg (>= 1.23.4)". So the possibility of
these scenarios is likely only hypothetical, and it'd be better to not
have more checks than what is necessary.
