Add a patch in ifupdown2 such that if DHCP is used for an interface, and
the policy setting sets dhcp-wait to no (meaning don't wait for dhclient
to acquire an IP address), then don't check to see if the interface has
a new IP address, since dhclient will still be working.
Fixes#8512.

In version 3.0.0, If a broadcast address is specified in
/etc/network/interfaces, then when ifup is run, it will fail with an
error saying `'str' object has no attribute 'packed'`. This appears to
be because it expects all attributes for an interface to be "packable"
into a compact binary representation. However, it doesn't actually
convert the broadcast address into an IPNetwork object (other addresses
are handled).
Therefore, convert the broadcast address it reads in from a str to an
IPNetwork object.
Also explicitly specify the scope of the loopback address in
/etc/network/interfaces as host scope. Otherwise, it will get added as
global scope by default. As part of this, use JSON to parse ip's output
instead of text, for robustness.

Fix#119
when parallel build is enable, multiple dpkg-buildpackage
instances are running at the same time. /var/lib/dpkg is shared
by all instances and the /var/lib/dpkg/updates could be corrupted
and cause the build failure.
the fix is to use overlay fs to mount separate /var/lib/dpkg
for each dpkg-buildpackage instance so that they are not affecting
each other.

- Add .gitignore files in each subdirectory of src/, so as to reduce the size of the .gitignore file in the project root, and also make it easier to maintain (i.e., if a directory in src/ is removed, there will not be outdated entries in the root .gitignore file.
- Also add missing .gitignore entries and remove outdated entries and duplicates.
