[pkg-ntp-maintainers] Bug#823458: Allow a custom ntp config file

[Christian Ehrhardt]

Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.8p7+dfsg-3

Hi,
this is another bug I found while cleaning up and again I'd prefer to just
fix it in Debian instead working around it in Ubuntu (alone).
Also it is surely worth another opinion/review on it.

This is about providing a way to allow a user to specify a custom ntp
config file.
But only so if dhcp did not provide one to allow dhcp to overwrite.

The patch is a slightly extended version of what was reported to us on the
Ubuntu bug (plus actual config and a bit of a helper text).

BTW - I currently submit a lot of smaller fixes and I guess after
Discussion they will all fit in one upload. That is why I send individual
patches instead of a debdiff. But if you would prefer debdiffs let me know.
