The dependency relation fields old names were deprecated in 1995
as the new ones were introduced. That seems barely long enough now
as a transition period.

dpkg-dev stopped recognizing it in 2007 (1.14.7) while building packages.
The rename itself happened in 1995 (0.93.72).

The previous regime of the file was to sort it on insert, but that
changes the values in the generated enum, which is fine as long as we
only use it in libapt itself, but breaks on other users.

The header was always intended to be private to apt itself, so we just
document this here now and lay the ground work to have the file in the
future only appended to, so that it remains sufficiently ABI stable that
we can use it outside the library in our apt tools.

We also remove some fields apt is unlikely to need or only uses in
certain cases outside of any (speed) critical path to have enough room
to add more fields soon as currently we are limited to 128 fields max
and it would be sad if we use up that allowance entirely already.

dpkg added a new field (see there for details) which breaks our
testcases due to an unknown field. apt doesn't make use of the field,
but we can at least order it nicely in output we generate.

dpkg and dak know various field names and order them in their output,
while we have yet another order and have to play catch up with them as
we are sitting between chairs here and neither order is ideal for us,
too.

A little testcase is from now on supposed to help ensureing that we do
not derivate to far away from which fields dpkg knows and orders.
