Policy says the Build-Depends of a package need to be sufficient to run
`debian/rules clean`, but this is not the case for vm, resulting in
`dpkg-buildpackage -S` failing when run in a minimal environment.
debhelper and its addons usually need to be in Build-Depends, even if the
package only builds one architecture category (arch-dep or arch-indep) of
binary packages.

Subject: [PATCH] d/control: Move debhelper and its autotools addon to
Build-Depends
Build-Depends-Indep are not guaranteed to be installed when running
`debian/rules clean`, even for a source package that only builds
architecture-independent binary packages. Moving the tools required
during clean to Build-Depends allows `dpkg-buildpackage -S` to succeed
in an environment with only the Build-Depends.
