Bug Description

Binary package hint: libdpkg-perl

The multiarch-cross spec (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchCross)
allows for build-dependencies to be marked with either :any or :native
to indicate exceptions to the default rules for installing
dependencies.

The attached patch adds this parsing to Dpkg:Deps and some tests to ensure that it is working OK.

Note: Debian bug and patch was filed before I realised that the essential parsing support was already in dpkg 1.16.0.
