Bug Description

Please merge adduser 3.116 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Sorry, I cannot work on the merge myself. I am filing this for reference.

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta:
  * testsuite/runsuite.sh: Add the testsuite directory to @INC, so it can find
    the tests.
  * extrausers support for adduser (LP: #1323732)
  * Add autopkgtest. (LP: #1246331)
  * Move ecryptfs-utils from recommends, to suggests. (LP: #1188108)
    Adduser has moved from required to minimal set, and thus started to
    pull ecryptfs-utils and cryptsetup into minimal installs, which is an
    undesired effect.
  * Merge from Debian unstable, remaining changes:
    - AdduserCommon.pm, adduser, adduser.8, adduser.conf.5: Allow uppercase
      letters in the names of system users. This is done by having a separate
      NAME_REGEX_SYSTEM configuration setting which applies when --system is
      specified. (Soren Hansen)
    - Add support for encrypting home directories:
      + adduser: Add --encrypt-home option, which calls ecryptfs-setup-private
        for the hard work.
      + doc/adduser.8: document the --encrypt-home option
      + debian/control: recommend ecryptfs-utils >= 67-1
      + deluser: remove all of /var/lib/ecryptfs/$user with --remove-home
  * Dropped changes, included in Debian:
    - Mark adduser Multi-Arch: foreign.
