Passthrough debhelper-compat b-d in dh-update-R

Ghost User requested to merge debhelper-compat-support into master

Fixes dh-update-R so that it should work with packages using debhelper-compat (= X) in Build-Depends instead of a d/compat file. The result should use the same style as the original.

Things that could (should?) be done but that aren't in this MR:

  • default to debhelper-compat in dh-make-R
  • automatically convert to debhelper-compat style in dh-update-R

See #932179
