wb: allow binNMUs of uncompiled packages

Adrian Bunk requested to merge bunk/release-tools:master into master

Only the last command (with the patched wb) was successful:

$ wb nmu 1 angelfish . alpha . -m 'Rebuild against Qt 6.8.2.' 
W: package angelfish is not installed on alpha, can't binNMU.
$ wb nmu 1 angelfish . alpha . -m 'Rebuild against Qt 6.8.2.' -o
W: package angelfish is not installed on alpha, can't binNMU.
$ ./wb nmu 1 angelfish . alpha . -m 'Rebuild against Qt 6.8.2.' 
W: package angelfish is not installed on alpha.
* angelfish/alpha
  | angelfish_24.12.2-1: not installed; can't register for binNMU.
$ ./wb nmu 1 angelfish . alpha . -m 'Rebuild against Qt 6.8.2.' -o
W: package angelfish is not installed on alpha.
$

The use case is that for Multi-Arch: same packages

wb nmu <number> <package> . ANY . -m '...' -o

can now sync the versions for all architectures, even when the package has not yet been built there.
