Migrate non VCS package into salsa

The problem

There are some packages non-VCS managed. It makes a bit hard to track the history of that package. Yes, it should be well described in d/changelog, but it sometimes lacks context a bit. (commit history in Git may help to understand)

Actual situation

Even though popular packages, not maintained under VCS.

  • wget
  • lsof
  • ...

Expected situation

No non-VCS managed packages for unstable.
