modern iptables and debhelper build-dependencies

Antonio Russorequested to merge
aerusso/pkg-collectd:pulls/modern-iptables-build-dep into master

This series of 3 patches allows collectd to build without iptables-dev, instead preferring libip4tc-dev and libip6tc-dev.

I've tested the first two patches by building it with pbuilder, and installing the resulting package. The output log indicates that iptables-dev is not installed (while libiptc-dev is).

The first patch modernizes the debhelper-compat dependency, and drops the old-style debian/compat change. The dbgsym migration appears to require the newer debhelper version.

The second patch trivially adjusts the dependencies to libiptc-dev, which ships libiptc.pc. The current version of collectd in the repositories requires this pkg-config file.

The third patch addresses a lintian override that needed to be updated.

This should address and close debian BTS#951088.
