Title:
  postinst: Rely on needrestart when present on the system

Status in pam package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This patch bypasses the custom restarting logic backed into the
  postinst script if the needrestart utility is present, as it allows
  sharing the logic with the rest of the system.

  It also changes the custom logic to compare the old package version to
  the current one instead of a hard-coded value. I don't feel
  particularly strongly about this, so feel free to drop it :)
