[Buildd-tools-devel] Bug#482922: sbuild: Version handling is internally inconsistent

[Roger Leigh]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.57.3-1
Severity: normal

Store all version information unambiguously in Sbuild::Build and
provide accessors to get:

- build dir
- DSC filename
- epoch ver
- upstream ver
- Debian ver
- all the above in the combinations needed to do necessary work
