Bug Description

[Impact]
The debian-distro-info command reports out of date information. I noticed this when debugging a vagrant-mutate autopkgtest failure (which ended up being unrelated).

[Test Case]
$ debian-distro-info --stable
stretch

After update:
$ debian-distro-info --stable
buster

[Regression Risk]
There maybe some fallout where scripts that are not compatible with buster begin to fail once they begin picking up buster as stable instead of stretch.
