[Pkg-uml-pkgs] Bug#186930: UML Headers

Attached patch installs the kernel headers into the UML package. But it
is not the equivalent of the kernel header packages shipped by the
Debian Kernel team. Many of the arch/ specific headers as well as the
Module symbol versions file is missing.

Thus this does not help in building kernel modules for packages like
iscsitarget, dkms etc.

Perhaps someone could take and extend it further to provide proper support.
