Title:
  quilt patches are not applied during --unbuilt-tree build

Status in “autopkgtest” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Pick a "3.0 (quilt) package" and unpack the source directory.
  2. Run "quilt pop -a"
  3. Run adt-run --unbuilt-tree against this source directory.

  Expected results: adt-run builds the source correctly, including an initial "quilt push -a" in its build area.
  Actual results: the package is built and tested without patches being applied.

  adt-run(1) says:

         --unbuilt-tree directory
                Specifies that tests from the unbuilt source tree directory should be run.  This is  very  similar  to
                specifing  --source  except that a directory tree (which should be pristine) is supplied, instead of a
                source package.

  It doesn't specify that patches will be applied, but "which should be
  pristine" is a bit ambiguous here. I'm not sure that it ever makes
  sense to build a package without quilt patches applied, and it is
  quite confusing and hard to track down when this happens. Please
  detect "3.0 (quilt)" and apply all patches by default.
