Add native Debian Packaging for Linux
Currently, the Debian packages are generated from ALIEN that converts
RPMs to Debian packages. This commit adds native Debian packaging for
Debian based systems.

This packaging is a fork of Debian zfs-linux 2.1.6-2 release.
(source: https://salsa.debian.org/zfsonlinux-team/zfs)

Some updates have been made to keep the footprint minimal that
include removing the tests, translation files, patches directory etc.
All credits go to Debian ZFS on Linux Packaging Team.

scripts/debian-packaging.sh can be used to invoke the build.

Type: boolean
Default: true
_Description: Abort building OpenZFS on a 32-bit kernel?
You are attempting to build OpenZFS against a 32-bit running kernel.
.
Although possible, building in a 32-bit environment is unsupported and
likely to cause instability leading to possible data corruption. You
are strongly advised to use a 64-bit kernel; if you do decide to
proceed with using OpenZFS on this kernel then keep in mind that it is at
your own risk.

Type: boolean
Default: true
_Description: Abort building OpenZFS on an unknown kernel?
You are attempting to build OpenZFS against a running kernel that could not
be identified as 32-bit or 64-bit. If you are not completely sure that
the running kernel is a 64-bit one, you should probably stop the build.

Template: zfs-dkms/note-incompatible-licenses
Type: note
_Description: Licenses of OpenZFS and Linux are incompatible
OpenZFS is licensed under the Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL),
and the Linux kernel is licensed under the GNU General Public License Version 2
(GPL-2). While both are free open source licenses they are restrictive
licenses. The combination of them causes problems because it prevents using
pieces of code exclusively available under one license with pieces of code
exclusively available under the other in the same binary.
.
You are going to build OpenZFS using DKMS in such a way that they are not going to
be built into one monolithic binary. Please be aware that distributing both of
the binaries in the same media (disk images, virtual appliances, etc) may
lead to infringing.
