fix(d/watch): enable uscan to detect new release on GitHub

I aim to obtain the latest version of edb-debugger. Debian offers version 1.3.0, whereas GitHub hosts version 1.5.0. To update and retrieve the orig.tar.gz file, I ran gbp import-orig --uscan. However, I encountered a warning that caused uscan to halt, thus preventing me from updating the package with the new upstream version:

uscan warn: In debian/watch no matching files for watch line https://github.com/eteran/edb-debugger/releases .*/edb-debugger-(\d\S+)\.tgz

After multiple attempts, I successfully updated it by using api.github.com to enable uscan to find the latest release. With this merge request, I intend to report and propose a fix to address this issue.

I hope this will be useful, and thank you for considering this merge request.
