[Bug 1098405] [NEW] Fix staged/profile build of libselinux for bootstrapping

[Wookey]

Public bug reported:

I was very pleasantly surprised to find that libselinux has support for
bootstrapping already using DEB_STAGE, but it doesn't actually work if
all the build deps are not installed due to the dh --with pyhton2, ruby
call. (and the fail-missing at the end)

This patch fixes those issues.

It also adds build profile info to the control headers so that the
build-deps can be reduced for bootstrap. However we can't upload this
part of the patch yet as dpkg support is not yet in raring. As a related
matter the DEB_STAGE variable name is likely to change too, but I'll
wait until agreement is reached before filing a patch.
