debhelper, source format and hardening status

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

I would like all our packages to use debhelper v9 or later and the 3.0
(quilt) source format.  We are not quite there yet.  Her is a short
status in git as of today.

% for f in libfishsound libkate liboggz libtheora libvorbis oggvideotools vorbis-tools; do printf "%-10s\t%s\t%s\n" $f $(cat $f/debian/compat) "$(cat $f/debian/source/format)"; done
libfishsound    7       3.0 (quilt)
libkate         7       3.0 (quilt)
liboggz         9       3.0 (quilt)
cat: libtheora/debian/source/format: No such file or directory
libtheora       9
libvorbis       9       3.0 (quilt)
oggvideotools   7       3.0 (quilt)
vorbis-tools    7       1.0
%

I tried to convert vorbis-tools to 3.0 (quilt), but the result did not
build so I decided to leave it for later.  I similarly tried to
convert libfishsound and libkate to debhelper 9, but the result
introduced multiarch support and I decided that change was too
intrusive to do so close to the freeze.

I very much welcome help in getting 3.0 (quilt) into vorbis-tools, and
moving it to debhelper 9 too.  I suspect converting oggvideotools to
debhelper 9 is trivial, just have not gotten around to it yet.

I would also very much like to enable hardening for all pachages.  I
just did not have time to look at it yet.
