Adding the Debian backport checklist

- Current version is two versions behind. As a result, upstream directs all users to the PPA, a packaging which does not meet basic standards. Ergo: backporting is meaningful.
- The package has a substantial user base although this for now means the PPA users.
- Package is available in Debian Bookworm and Jammy.
- Opencpn is a leaf package, no reverse dependencies.
- No other Ubuntu backports exist.
- I also maintain the Debian package and is also fairly active in the upstream project.
