Refresh data for new licenses in /usr/share/common-licenses
Discussion in #885698 lead to the addition of 9 new licenses.
The BSD removal is also normal, as it was removed following Policy
version 3.9.0 and is already flagged by the
copyright-refers-to-deprecated-bsd-license-file tag.

Add several tests to validate against uscan using d/u/metadata with missing d/watch

Lintian::Check::Debian::Watch - do not emit `debian-watch-file-is-missing` if d/u/metadata is present and has all the required fields (Closes: #1118077)
The only drawback is that this needs to be in sync with `uscan` i.e. take up changes in the templates
as per uscan code changes. Unfortunately there is no perl library at the moment to provide these implementations.
Even if it were the case, we need to have the APIs consumable in a way for lintian to validate it.
Another approach would be to run `uscan --no-download` on the repo, but this will need internet access and also spawn
a bunch of other checks which we should avoid.

Lintian::Check::Debian::Upstream::Metadata - drop old code for checking YAML version
The fixed version of libyaml-libyaml-perl was uploaded in 2018 and it is not relevant now
to check for the versions before that period which had CVE.

Replace MLDBM storage with per-member Storable files
Drops the BerkeleyDB/MLDBM dependency in favor of Lintian::Storage::PerMember,
which stores each hash key in its own Storable file inside a temporary
directory.
Update Lintian::Index::Elf and remove the libberkeleydb-perl and libmldbm-perl
build dependencies.

Lintian::Check::Debian::Changelog - Use distroinfo instead of hard-coding distro names (Closes: #1040138)
This ends the cycle of having to hard-code stable distribution name on every backport
as we directly use the name of stable distribution that we get from `distro-info`
and consequently `distro-info-data`
See the commit message in
https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/-/commit/2dc42ac0dc2073d6537203cbb4fb82d82460d7ef
for more information.
Only drawback with this implementation is that we are now depending on the system time for
getting the stable distro name via the `->stable()` call, as we do not pass any date here to
avoid hard-coding it once again.

Mark 'clojure-package-but-not-dh-clojure' as Experimental
dh-clojure is not yet production ready. As such, Clojure packages should
not (yet) be mass-migrated to it.
When it is, this can be flipped back to Experimental: no.
