[Bug 1065201] [NEW] debuild ignores dpkg-genchanges hook

[Maciej Malycha]

Public bug reported:

The hook dpkg-genchanges described in man is ignored by debuild - both
when specified as command line option --dpkg-genchanges-hook and
configuration option DEBUILD_DPKG_GENCHANGES_HOOK. All the logic seems
to be in place, only the code reading hook value is missing. I found it
in Debian, devscripts-2.10.66, but exists also in development. Attached
patch fixes the problem in revision 126 of lp:ubuntu/devscripts branch.
