debian: Add Conflicts against obsolete packages using install-info in their prerm

These packages have been removed after they were released with lenny
or squeeze, but they may survive dist-upgrades to wheezy and jessie.

Since their prerm uses install-info they cannot be removed any longer
after installing dpkg 1.17.x and there is no upgrade path to a fixed
package version. So use Conflicts, because these packages need to be
removed (with their prerm) before a dpkg that would disallow to
subsequently remove them is upgraded. Breaks would only at most
request to deconfigure them.

All Conflicts have the form PACKAGE (<< VERSION). If the source package
still exists, the VERSION that dropped the problematic PACKAGE was used.
Otherwise the next possible maintainer upload VERSION that could
reintroduce PACKAGE into sid was used.

[guillem@debian.org:
 - Replace Breaks with Conflicts.
 - Update lintian-overrides. ]

Closes: #735159
