Correct broken dselect logic for self-conflicting packages
The previous code seems to have had some confusion over the precedence
of '&&' vs ':'. The new rule is that a Conflicts is violated if the
target package is installed or to be error-preserved ie
would_like_to_install() != 0 - except that we disregard packages which
directly Conflict with themselves.

Preserve the order of dependencies and build-dependencies
* scripts/dpkg-gencontrol.pl, scripts/dpkg-source.pl:
Do not sort the dependency fields as order matters given
the greedy algorithm that APT uses when trying to resolve
dependencies. See discussion on debian-devel:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/02/msg00893.html
* man/dpkg-gencontrol.1: Document the above changes.
* scripts/Dpkg/Deps.pm (simplify_deps): Tries to respect order put
by the maintainer when simplifying dependencies.
* scripts/t/400_Dpkg_Deps.t: Add a test-case to ensure that
further changes respect this constraint.
* scripts/dpkg-shlibdeps.pl: Sort generated dependencies to
have a deterministic output.
Dpkg::Changelog::Debian: Fix regression in header parsing
* scripts/Dpkg/Changelog/Debian.pm (parse):
One patch against the old parser that allowed
chars '+' and '.' in distribution names was
not forward ported into the new parser. Do
this now.
* scripts/t/600_Dpkg_Changelog/regression:
Add testcase for this regression.
