   * Support exporting submodules as part of the superproject package.
     Closes: #734360
     It's been a while since we had any follow up or feedback on the discussion
     in that bug, so it's not clear that submodules remain a wide use case, but
     I've now got one upstream repo really using them (though it probably would
     be better organised differently too) so I at least have something concrete
     to base the gitpkg behaviour on rather than just a strawman speculation on
     my part about how a repo with submodules might be arranged and operated.
 .
     The originally proposed patch had quite a few limitations, it only worked
     on exports of the debian-treeish, not for a real orig-branch, and it used
     git submodule foreach, which only works on the current checked out state
     of the working dir and so breaks one of gitpkg's fundamental modes of
     operation where any revision can be exported at any time, regardless of
     the current state of the repo working dir.  This implementation is quite a
     bit more involved, but it should handle most or all cases, including where
     submodules have been moved or later deleted, provided the local repo has
     been fully initialised and all submodules which may need to be exported
     have been cloned into the superproject and its full history is intact.
 .
     It will not simply export submodules by default, though it if finds them
     present in a repo that has not been configured to export (or ignore) them
     then it will prompt asking what immediate action should be taken and
     suggest configuration to avoid be prompted again subsequently.  This way
     existing repos that have been silently ignoring submodules thus far will
     not silently do something surprisingly different with this gitpkg release.
 .
   * Sanity check and/or warn if gitpkg is invoked from a submodule dir, since
     that probably won't do what a lot of people might naively assume, but it
     might still be something that some pathological repo actually has a use
     case for.  We probably shouldn't encourage it though.
 .
   * Bump to debhelper compat 12.  That give us no-patch builds back to buster
     which is still a supported release.  We don't actually need anything from
     newer dh in this package, so this is just to stay ahead of the arbitrary
     'deprecated version' warnings rather than to actually fix anything.
