Use the same template syntax and implementation for maintainer
scripts, translations, etc. as we do for the control files. Define
the image-stem and initramfs variables to replace the old K and I
variables.
After this, debian/linux-* and debian/po/*.po are generated files (at
source preparation time) and should be ignored in svn.
Use debhelper to install the generated files at build time. This also
results in a redundant dependency on debconf (which we already have in
Pre-Depends), but this seems harmless.

Maintainer scripts generated by kernel-package pass an environment
variable $KERNEL_ARCH to hook scripts. This is undocumented but seems
to be the architecture string that the kernel will report
(e.g. through 'uname -m').
However, for the past few years our maintainer scripts have set it to
the source architecture name instead. Since no-one reported this bug,
I don't think anyone depends on it. codesearch didn't find any users
either. So remove it.
