   * Summary of tag changes:
     + Added:
       - file-references-package-build-path
 .
   * checks/files.pm:
     + [CL] Don't emit uses-dpkg-database-directly for d-i components; they
       likely know what they are doing with no alternatives.
     + [CL] Use the output from file(1) when determining whether to emit
       the package-contains-no-arch-dependent-files tag to catch packages
       that ship (for example) just a Python script under /usr/bin in an
       architecture-dependent package.  This reverts 6f4bd2fee2 in order to
       distinguish between "data" and such scripts.  Thanks to Dmitry
       Bogatov for investigating.  (Closes: #916023)
     + [CL] Refactor, tidy and optimise various checks for the contents of
       files.
     + [CL] Check files for references to the build path if specified in a
       .buildinfo.  (Closes: #916021
   * checks/shared-libs.desc:
     + [CL] Clarify that symbols-file-missing-build-depends-package-field is
       emitted per-package in its long description, not based on a file.
   * checks/systemd.pm:
     + [CL] Don't emit systemd-service-file-missing-hardening-features for
       Type=oneshot "services" such as mdadm(8).
   * checks/watch-file.desc:
     + [CL] Correct grammar of the debian-watch-does-not-check-gpg-signature
       tag description.
     + [CL] Mark debian-watch-does-not-check-gpg-signature as "experimental"
       as it is not actionable in the vast majority of cases and is in
       danger of diluting the output of Lintian.  (Closes: #916207)
 .
   * data/spelling/corrections:
     + [PW] Add a number of corrections.
 .
   * t/*:
     + [CL] Apply a patch series from Felix Lechner to use "skeletons" as
       test templates, fixing a "exec failed: Text file busy" regression
       when running tests by tag name.  (Closes: #916087)
     + [CL] Apply a patch series from Felix Lechner to improve the
       "onlyrun=" test selection feature.  One can now select all tests
       connected to particular Lintian check with "check:foo".  (MR: !90)
     + [CL] Apply a patch set from Felix Lechner to sign test packages.
       when a upstream/private-key.asc is present.  (MR: !93)
