Disable automatic debian/changelog change

Bug Description

Binary package hint: germinate

germinate-update-metapackage updates debian/changelog automatically. This is annoying for me because I don't use the same versioning scheme as Debian and Ubuntu for my custom packages.

I've made a small patch that add a --nodch arguments to disable automatic update to debian/changelog.
