dpkg/debian/usertags

To make management of bugs against the dpkg suite easier we add as many of
the following usertags as apply to the bug.

When filing bugs, please do the same to aid triage, by including in the
bug report pseudo-header:

	User: dpkg@packages.debian.org
	Usertags: <usertag...>

Those are the currently used usertags (and the matchings against the old
“pseudo-tags”, which were encoded in the bug title):
