Package has been updated to 4.2.2-0ubuntu1, with the following changes:

- add a metapackage "pwl-pc-services" and move Modaliases field to it
  (this is to address the issue that we cannot suppress Lintian warning on -dbgsym packages)
- surpress Lintian warning "unknown-field Modaliases"
- remove unnecessary check for maintainer scripts
- add signing key check for upstream commits
- squash changelog
- update upstream version

Had a discussion with a reviewer on some questions I had with the
review:

* About Lintian warning on Modaliases, which is Ubuntu-specific field:
It is okay to just add override to it as Ubuntu does not have specific
ruleset on Lintian regarding to the warning.

* About git commit signed by GitHub instead of author themselves, it is
fine to add GitHub key (https://github.com/web-flow.gpg) for the commits
made on GitHub web interface.
