Add a --query option to update-alternatives. Closes: #336091, #441904

* scripts/update-alternatives.pl: add a --query option that works like
--display but outputs a machine parseable rfc822-like output.
* man/update-alternatives.8: document that new option, and the
associated format.

+.SH "QUERY FORMAT"
+The \fBupdate\-alternatives\fP \fI\-\-query\fP format is using an
+RFC822-like flat format. It's made of \fIn\fP + 1 blocks where \fIn\fP is
+the number of alternatives available in the queried link group. The first
+block contains the following fields:
+.TP
+.BR Link: " <link>"
+The generic name of the alternative.
+.TP
+.BR Status: " <status>"
+The status of the alternative (\fBauto\fR or \fBmanual\fR).
+.TP
+.BR Best: " <best choice>"
+The path of the best alternative for this link group. Not present if
+there is no alternatives available.
+.TP
+.BR Value: " <currently selected alternative> "
+The path of the currently selected alternative. It can also take the magic
+values \fBnone\fR or \fBerror\fR. The former is used if the link doesn't
+exist, and the latter in case of error.
+.TP
+.BR Error: " <error details>"
+When \fBValue\fR is \fBerror\fR, this field is present and contains a human readable
+string explaining the error.
+.
+.TP
+The other blocks describe the available alternatives in the queried link group:
+.TP
+.BR Alternative: " <path of this alternative>"
+Path to this block's alternative.
+.TP
+.BR Priority: " <priority value>"
+Value of the priority of this alternative.
+.TP
+.BR Slaves: " <list of slaves>"
+When this header is present, the \fBnext\fR lines hold all slave alternatives
+associated to the master link of the alternative. There is one slave per
+line. Each line contains one space, the generic name of the slave
+alternative, another space, and the path to the slave alternative.
