Bug#606158: pbuilder: Please integrate eatmydata

To be honest I don't like this patch, for a variety of reasons.
Anyway, I'm trying to get it done here, locally in a separated branch.

Since quite a lot of time I've been using pbuilder with eatmydata, by
adding eatydata to EXTRAPACKAGES and just prepending 'eatmydata' to the
pbuilder calls.  I don't like my current local config, because pbuilder
does writing also on the host (e.g. logs, final packages, etc) I'd
prefer those writing to not get "filtered" by eatmydata.
Instead in the approach I'm taking now only calls inside the chroot will
be effected by eatmydata (notabily, package installation and the build
itself, which is by large the bigger amount of I/O done).

I'll get back once I get something I like and works.
